Big Grains Salad in Easy Dinner Recipes,There's no true recipe for a big salad, but for this robust green meal, you will want to keep a few rules in mind. Skip the soft lettuces, which tend to get squashed in a big salad, and start with sturdier greens, like kale or escarole. Add fruits and vegetables, a protein, like a hard-boiled egg, and starch or two. You want a total of six to eight ingredients, before toppings. Too few, and it could get boring; too many, and the bowl gets crowded and confusing. Finish it off with a substantial dressing, like avocado, yogurt or tahini, and add a couple of toppings, like chives or chopped nuts. Serve with a side of whole-grain bread for a filling and healthy meal.
Big Grains Salad
Whole-Grain Spelt Salad in Easy Dinner Recipes,Grain salads are forgiving and flexible, and nutty takes well to all kinds of vegetables like fennel, arugula, or carrots. Here, quick-marinated mushrooms, leeks, and cucumbers combine for a refreshing, flavorful salad. Marinating the cooked mushrooms and leeks with cider vinegar for 15 minutes allows them to absorb the vinegar so that each bite delivers a pop of tartness. A sprinkling of pepper powder adds a blast of color and a mild, wonderfully fruity red-pepper flavor.

Veg Hakka Noodles in Easy Dinner Recipes,Veg Hakka Noodles is an Indo-Chinese preparation that is made by tossing boiled noodles and stir-fried vegetables in Chinese sauces. The vegetables give it an enjoyable crunchy texture and the Soy and Chilli sauces give it a distinctive flavor. This dish is very popular across all of India and is often served in Indian Restaurants or in parties. Spicy variations of this are often sold by street vendors as chowmein. Veg Hakka Noodles are also quite healthy since they are loaded with veggies and very little oil goes into their preparation. I have added onions, colored Bell Peppers (Capsicum), Cabbage, Carrots and Spring Onions to this dish. You can make them even healthier by using whole wheat noodles.

Mongolian Meatball Ramen in Easy Dinner Recipes,Tender Mongolian glazed meatballs are not only filled with an Asian flavor — they are smothered in the best homemade Mongolian sauce to wow your guests!
