It’s officially and unofficially spring where I live (officially, because there’s no more snow and unofficially, because according to the calendar it’s not actually spring yet) and I am loving every minute of this mild weather! When we lived in Canada our winters seemed to drag on forever and ever…I’m talking 5 straight months of snow and bitter cold. I’m happy to say that our first winter in Romania has been mild and MUCH shorter than we’re used to! The funny thing is everyone here is relieved to be done with what they’re calling a long, cold winter with lots of snow, and we just chuckle to ourselves.

For the first time in my whole life I was actually surprised by the arrival of spring. The snow melted almost overnight and mild temperatures just sort of appeared – it was a welcome change and one that will, for us at least, mean a lot more fresh produce in our diets again!

For some reason I always find it easier to eat a healthy diet in the Spring and Summer. Maybe because there’s more fresh produce available and the prices of it always go down during the warm seasons. Or maybe it’s because subliminally I know bathing suit season is coming. Or maybe it’s because there’s something about having your windows open and feeling the cool breeze from outside that makes you want to eat vegetables…I don’t know! But whatever it is, I welcome it every year and this year is no different.

All winter long we enjoy homemade soups for lunch, like this Butternut Squash Red Lentil Soup with Honey Curry Roasted Chickpeas, or this Crock Pot Potato Bacon Leek Soup, but these days I’m putting away my soup pot and falling back in love with salads. And since it’s not quite as easy to find fresh greens here in Romania as it is to find cabbage (that’s putting it mildly…), this Asian Cabbage Salad with Ginger Peanut Dressing is my salad of choice right now!

This Asian Cabbage Salad with Ginger Peanut Dressing is truly one of the most delicious salads I’ve ever had. I love to enjoy it in these Thai Peanut Salad Wonton Cups, but it’s just as delicious all on it’s own. It’s such a simple recipe and a simple dressing but it’s SO filling and flavourful that it eats like a meal for lunch. We often serve it as a side dish as well on nights when we’re enjoying other delicious Asian-style fare, like this Easy One Pan Kung Pao Chicken Pasta, or this Easy Sticky Asian Chicken.

And if you want to make it an even heartier salad, throw some grilled chicken on top or even some grilled tofu if you’re looking for a vegetarian option. I just know you’re going to LOVE this salad!
