Who’s the author? Clem Haxby is the Culinary Director of The Salad Project, designing and innovating menus for the London-based salad bar since founders Florian de Chezelles and James Dare first opened their doors in 2021.

As well as being a qualified nutritional advisor, personal trainer and chef, Clem is the founder of the VINOMENAL wine club.

What’s it about? The Salad Project is packed with recipes for 55 salads and 30 dressings, offering an endlessly customisable array of flavour combinations to try. You’ll also find homemade topping recipes and tips on how to manage your own kitchen and pantry, so you can recreate the The Salad Project’s most popular salads in your own kitchen – and discover new, inventive dishes.

Colourful, filling, and delicious, The Salad Project’s dishes are all about making the humble salad synonymous with abundance, flavour and low-waste cooking. With chapters covering the various components that make up a great salad (think Zingy, Herby, Spicy, Creamy, and Crunches + Kicks), plus Weekly Menus for the ultimate meal prep inspiration, this book has everything you need and more to help you step up your salad game and make boring mealtimes a thing of the past.

Recipes we love: SP Caesar, Hot Honey Halloumi + Dill Fattoush, and Brown Butter + Miso Dressing.

Perfect for: Salad lovers and sceptics alike, or anyone looking to bring variety, colour, and flavour to their meals.
