20 Allergy Friendly Summer Salads Round-up by Allergy Awesomeness

Summer is almost here which means it’s time to break out the salads! I’ve gathered 20 allergy-friendly recipes to help you gear up for summer, with full pictures to help you decide which of these tasty creations you’ll be digging into.

I love salads in the summer so that you can have something cool and crisp to help stave off the heat.  I love not having to turn on the oven and to have something fresh and light.  All of these salads are gluten and dairy free, and most avoid many of the top eight allergens.  I’ve tried to label them, but be sure to click on the link to the individual contributors to see the full recipes.

I’m super excited to be spending my first summer online here, with you! I’ve got a few salads I want to share, and lots of grilling recipes.  And, some that include those delicious summer berries.  So, pin these and then be sure to come back as I share with you some allergy-friendly treats all summer long.
