Origin of the Salad

I have seen a ton of posts on Tiktok for the Hot Girl Summer Salad, the original recipe originates from Jayria, @herdresscode, (on Tiktok). Her original post was in March of 2021 and promises to snatch your waist as she lost 20 pounds by eating it every day along with other vegetables.

I don’t plan to eat this salad for weight loss or as the only meal I eat each day. I’m always looking for salad recipes and couldn’t wait to try this one.

It wouldn’t shock me if she actually lost a lot of weight by eating the salad because weight loss is obtained through a calorie deficit. This salad isn’t high in calories, but it does lack the protein I would need for a meal replacement.

How it Tastes

The salad tastes great! My favorite part is the crunch from the sunflower kernels. This is amazing with bacon and/or shrimp!

Can You Make it Ahead/How to Store

Leftover salad can be stored in the fridge for 3-4 days tightly covered and sealed. If stored with the dressing, the dressing will seep into the vegetables and you will still have the flavor. If you want the same texture as a fresh salad, you may want to toss it in additional dressing.

Very tasty and flavorful salad! I added some rotisserie chicken for more protein. Definitely will be making this salad again. Thanks, Brandi!
