Hey there, salad lover! 🥗💚

Spring is in full swing, and that means fresh, in-season produce is everywhere! 🍓🥕 Crisp greens, juicy berries, and tender asparagus are at their peak—perfect for tossing into vibrant, nutrient-packed salads.

To help you make the most of all that spring produce, I rounded up 13 fresh and healthy salad recipes that are perfect for May. These are light, vibrant, easy to throw together, and packed with flavor (and nutrients!).

💬 True story: Last weekend I grabbed a bunch of asparagus and strawberries from our local market (they looked too good to pass up!), and ended up tossing together the Strawberry Feta & Mint Salad from this list. My family devoured it in minutes—like, I blinked and it was gone. Even my picky eater asked for seconds. Victory! 🏆

Here’s a little taste of what’s inside:
🥑 Mango & Avocado Salad with Lime Dressing
🍓 Strawberry Feta & Mint Salad
🥓 Creamy Green Pea Salad with Cheese & Bacon
🌿 Spring Asparagus & Radishes Salad
🍍 Hawaiian Coleslaw with Pineapple
… and 8 more mouthwatering recipes you’ll want to make on repeat.

Whether you’re looking for a quick lunch, a dinner side, or something pretty to serve at brunch, there’s something here for every spring mood. 🌞
