Are you looking for fall salad recipes? We have a whole list of salads here that just perfectly say, “Fall is here!”
Ask someone about seasonal salads, and most people immediately think of summer salads – they’re light, refreshing, and they’re chock-full bright veggies from your local farmer’s market.
However, salads don’t just go well with warmer months, and if you’re looking for something to tide you over on those brisk autumn days, there’s no better option than a fall salad.
They’re not as light as summer salads. Fall salads contain fruits and veggies like Brussel sprouts, farro, sweet potatoes, butternut squash, and your other favorite hearty foods.
Whether you’re looking to spice up the menu for a dinner party or you’re looking for healthy (but festive) meals this autumn, fall salad recipes can be a good addition.
So, how do you find the next recipe to try? We’ve compiled a list of fall favorites! Review these fall salad recipes and autumn salad ideas for you below.

Creamy Broccoli Salad With Bacon
With ingredients like mozzarella, broccoli, and mayonnaise, this Creamy Broccoli Salad is the best way to cap off a cool autumn day.
Roasted Pear Salad With Balsamic Reduction
Since pears come into season around August, adding them to your fall salad is a great way to get into the fall-time spirit.
In this recipe, you’ll be roasting them and then combining them with delicious additions like raw spinach, parmesan, and balsamic vinaigrette.
Farro Salad With Air Fryer Roasted Vegetables
We created this fall salad recipe back when we were crushing hard on farro. We’ve had it as a hot mildly sweet breakfast grain and as a pilaf.
We call this a salad because we’ve eaten it hot and cold and we top it with a bit of goat cheese, and either way, it’s pretty delish.
You can use the oven to roast the vegetables, but the air fryer does it in about the same amount of time that the farro takes cooking on the stove.
Tip: Farro is supposed to be chewy, so no need to cook it for extra time, just follow the instructions on the package. And any type works, pearled or semi-pearled farro.
Sweet Apple Carrot Coleslaw
This sweet apple carrot coleslaw recipe is just such a recipe: the right balance of sweet and tangy crunch. We served it beside a meatloaf for one meal, and next to dumplings for another.
Red Cabbage Slaw With Cilantro And Parsley
It’s a crunchy side dish that’s satisfying to eat and it’s good for you and your family at the same time. What’s more, it will look absolutely exquisite on your dining table!
No-Mayo Carolina Coleslaw With Celery Seed
It has an extra flavor punch of celery seeds that perfectly mixes with cabbage, kale leaves, carrots, onions, cider vinegar, and mustard. However, in this recipe, we used vinegar rather than mayonnaise, so it is way healthier than those creamy coleslaws.
Sesame Ginger Asian Slaw, No Mayo
This recipe is a friggin delicious Asian slaw that you will love crunching down on. It is a fantastic side dish that goes great with meatballs, balsamic glazed grilled chicken.
Easy Arugula Salad, 6 Ingredients
A great feature about this salad is how insanely easy it is to create. The best part is that this salad only contains 6 ingredients, including the arugula.
Creamy Red Potato Salad With Fresh Dill
Made with tender red potatoes, fresh herbs, and Greek yogurt, it’s a flavorful twist on a classic.
Tex-Mex Quinoa Salad With Black Beans And Avocado
Served hot or cold, this quinoa salad includes fresh tomatoes, red onion, corn, black beans, cotija cheese, fresh lime, and avocados. But customize this hearty dish with whatever you have on hand.
