Beat The Heat - Loaded Salads

Well , you'd think having just come back from Mexico that I'd be well prepared for the heat wave that struck. The fact is, I was not. It was easily 10 + degrees warmer everyday without even factoring in the wretched humidity. With the humidity factored in, we were over 105 degrees for nearly a week. My air conditioner was struggling and I was so ill for two days because of it.

There's no better way to minimize cooking than to enjoy some loaded salads. A salad doesn't have to be a basic b!tch garden that everyone (aside from me) loathes. We need toppings, protein, and excitement. With that being said, let's look at some of my favourite meal sized salads!
