Simple, easy, and quick to make, this healthy salad has it all—the creaminess from the avocado, the crunch from the pumpkin seeds, and the flavor from the lime juice and red pepper flakes.
This bowl bursts with flavors and textures: peppery arugula, creamy goat cheese, candylike dates, piquant roasted peppers, earthy beets, and crunchy almonds. Want even more? Toast the quinoa slightly in the saucepan before adding the water for extra nuttiness.
In-season asparagus benefits from as little preparation as possible. A squeeze of lemon, some shaved Parm, and toasted breadcrumbs are all you need for this simple salad.
