It will come as a surprise to no one that our favorite part of this Mediterranean-inspired power salad is the fresh, homemade ginger-mint dressing. That, and the fact that it’s best enjoyed at room temperature, which means you can refrigerate it the night before and it’ll totally survive a couple hours of hot sun. Now that’s what we call easy vegetarian picnic food!

It’s got all the wonderful flavors of a taco platter, but with less carbs, and all the easy-to-pack appeal. Even avocado haters will fall for its fresh, creamy avo-dressing.
