Please let us know when y'all find a name for the salad. Maybe something w/ "orange" or "kale" in it. Like, "Orange you glad this salad is amazing." or "Kale you believe how good this is?" Something like that but shorter ( ; Thanks for the great recipes. Stoked to try most of these, especially the meatballs & Spanish beef ones ( :

[@mnorwo2]

Since it is an original salad, name it after you. The Sarah Lynn Salad!

The last salad.. Farro-nough Salad.

[@cantharide5818]

That orange salad reminds me of an Italian classic, but they do it with walnuts and black olives instead of beets, farro and kale (and they also eat it with taralli, a kind of dry bread). I'll absolutely give a shot to yours (maybe shredding the beets and mixing them with carrots), seems fantastic!

[@rachelgoodall5580]

[@angel1303921]

Hi Sara, the recipes look great! I would really like to make the honey garlic meatballs but I'm a vegetarian. Would this work if I crumble up some tofu and follow the same instructions? If it is possible do I change the heat setting on the oven? Thank you for posting such amazing variety of recipes! You and your team rock!

I love these lunchbox recipes 😍 Do you think broccoli would work instead of cauliflower 'rice'? I see cauliflower rice everywhere but I dont really like cauliflower. Unless you cant really taste the cauliflower much? I wonder if broccoli would work the same in a food processor 🤔
