Breakfast Salad with Berry Yogurt Dressing
Salad for breakfast? It’s a beautiful thing! This Breakfast Salad with Berry Yogurt Dressing is a fresh and delicious way to start your day.
One of my favorite breakfast spots in the Twin Cities features a menu of savory morning plates, each with a small side salad of fresh greens. (The Buttered Tin >>> go there!) Of course I love the eggs and roasted potatoes and biscuits and such, but it’s the contrast of the fresh salad that always makes me enjoy my breakfast just a little bit more.
I regularly enjoy salad for breakfast at home, and I just know that you’re going to love this Breakfast Salad with Berry Yogurt Dressing. The other recipe that works beautifully for breakfast is my Herby Lemon Vinaigrette. BOTH, so good!
I created this salad-for-breakfast recipe for the Food & Friends section on The Pioneer Woman’s site where I’m a contributor. To read the full post and grab this RECIPE for my Breakfast Salad with Berry Yogurt Dressing, just click here.
I must recommend baking a fresh batch of my favorite granola to top your breakfast salad with berry yogurt dressing. Homemade granola takes this salad to a whole new level. Plus, you’ll have crispy, flavorful granola to sprinkle over many bowls of morning yogurt and fresh fruit.
I promise you, this granola is better than any store-bought variety. So worth the effort.
Here’s the other way I like to enjoy my breakfast salads, with this bright and tasty Herby Lemon Vinaigrette.
It’s the perfect match with eggs and buttery toast.
Simply drizzle the citrusy vinaigrette over fresh greens (I like arugula and/or baby spinach) and finish with a sprinkling of course salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Happy Breakfast-ing!
My mind is blown by how you went sweet with this AM salad! I’m a huge fan of salad for breakfast but I’ve only ever done lettuce/greens with an egg on top…you’re really challenging my limits here in a good way!! It looks incredible.
This is such a fun salad. Great for serving at brunches with savory items! Thanks Jessie!
LOVE this, I’m a ‘real food for breakfast’ type, so it’s right up my alley :)
Hearty and healthy! Sounds perfect to me!!! Once in a while, when we have some grilled vegetables leftover, I’ll cook an egg and put that on top of a salad. As someone who doesn’t really go for cereal, this is my ideal breakfast.
Thsi is a new for me!! Looks so delicious and healthy too! ♥
I have NEVER done salad for breakfast! BUT, I LOVE this idea! That dressing sounds so tasty!
You definitely need to start eating some salad for breakfast. I LOVE!!!
I’m diving head first into this gorgeous salad!!
Seriously can’t wait to have a salad like this to start my day!
