May is National Salad Month, and we think that’s just great! We love crisp, cool salads during the warm spring and summer months, and with the right ingredients, salads never get boring. Nuts.com offers quite a few products that can give your salad a flavor and nutrition boost. Hooray!

Salad booster is the ultimate salad seasoning. We love it! Salad booster is made from a mixture of sprouted seeds, savory seasonings, veggies and superfoods such as organic sprouted pumpkin seeds, spirulina, organic sprouted sunflower seeds and white chia seeds. Cheesy salad booster has the same nutritional power as regular salad booster, with the added flavor of nutritional yeast.

Salad topper mix is a classic combination of salad topping such as sunflower seeds, soy beans, imitation bacon bits, sesame seeds, vegetables and spices. We also offer traditional salad toppings such as sesame salad bits and seasoned homestyle croutons. They’ll add a little crunch to your simple salad!

Nuts and seeds can add a little extra nutrition and flavor to salads. Try raw sunflower seeds, raw pepitas and sliced natural almonds. Organic hemp seeds and chia seeds are also both great options for topping salads.

If you like to add a little sweetness to your salad, we highly recommend adding a handful of dried blueberries. They’re great when paired with goat cheese and greens! We also love chopped organic sundried tomatoes. These sweet and salty little tomatoes are grown without pesticides and are certified organic by CCOF.

What are some of your favorite salad toppings?
