Steps
- 1Cut vegetables into bite-size pieces so every forkful makes sense.
- 2Season the sturdy ingredients first so they do not taste flat.
- 3Whisk oil, acid, salt, and any spice into a simple dressing.
- 4Toss just before serving, then add delicate herbs or crunchy toppings last.
- 5Taste again for salt and acid before calling it done.
Grit & Soul tip
Salad should not mean plain. Salt the vegetables, add acid, and give it crunch.

The memory belongs below the recipe.
This is the side that earns a place on Grit & Soul by tasting intentional, not obligatory.
Grit & Soul keeps the cooking directions easy to reach first. The story still matters, but it should never make someone scroll forever before they can cook.

Watch for
Dry the surface before it hits the grate. Moisture has to leave before browning can begin.
Make it yours
Finish with something bright: pickles, herbs, citrus, vinegar sauce, or a sharp slaw.
