A simple lemon parmesan salad that’s packed with flavor, and so easy to make! Pair it with your favorite main dish, or top it with a protein for a quick and delicious meal.

The perfect side dish
Whenever I’m running low on veggies to make as a side dish, I love throwing together a simple green salad. It’s light, fresh, and pairs well with pretty much any meal.
This lemony salad take 5 minutes to throw together, and is filled with freshly shaved parmesan. It’s flavorful, crunchy, and can be made with any greens of your choice.


How to make Lemon Parmesan Salad
The Dressing
To make the salad dressing, you’ll need:
- Extra-virgin olive oil
- Freshly squeezed lemon juice
- Grated parmesan + shaved parmesan
- Simple spices like salt, pepper and garlic powder
Mixed Greens
I love using a 5-mix lettuce for this salad, but you can use any greens you prefer. A few of my top picks would be kale, arugula, or spring mix.
