At the request of his coworkers who were constantly admiring his lunches, David Bez started the photo-driven blog Salad Pride, embarking on a yearlong challenge to create one new salad every day. The blog instantly gained popularity for its creative salads that display the incredible versatility of vegetables and require no special cooking skills. The cookbook Salad Love pairs--for the first time--his vibrant photographs with accompanying recipes. Many of his recipes utilize only a cutting board and a knife, so lunches can be prepared right at your desk, while some recipes require initial prep time. Ingredients range from the simple, like beets, apples, lettuce, and cauliflower, to the more complex, like spiralized zucchini, quinoa, and sundried peppers. With an emphasis on the freshest ingredients and new flavor combinations, these salads truly excite and inspire.
