Amazing Skin Food Fall Salad

Jump to Recipe

if you’ve been craving a salad that’s equal parts nourishing and satisfying, this skinfood salad is exactly what you need this fall.

every bite is bursting with texture, flavor, and skin-loving nutrients that truly make you glow from the inside out.

taste

this salad has such a beautiful balance of flavors.

the spinach gives a light and earthy base, while roasted sweet potatoes bring natural sweetness.

brussels sprouts add a nutty depth once roasted, and edamame delivers that savory, slightly salty crunch.

the farro adds heartiness and chewiness, making this feel like a real meal rather than just a side salad.

chopped apple brightens everything with crisp freshness, and the miso tahini dressing ties it all together with a creamy, umami-rich finish.

texture

there’s no shortage of variety here.

you get crunch from roasted edamame and apples, creaminess from the tahini dressing, chewy satisfaction from the farro, and caramelized edges on the brussels sprouts and sweet potato.

hemp seeds add a final layer of nutty crunch. it’s a textural dream in every forkful.

nutrient density

this salad earns the name skinfood for good reason.

spinach and brussels sprouts provide vitamin c, folate, and antioxidants that support collagen production and skin repair.

sweet potatoes are loaded with beta-carotene, which the body converts into vitamin a to promote healthy skin turnover.

hemp seeds offer omega-3s that reduce inflammation and support a glowing complexion.

edamame brings in plant-based protein, and farro is rich in fiber and minerals like magnesium and zinc, both of which are important for skin health.

even the miso tahini dressing adds a boost—fermented miso for gut health and tahini for calcium, iron, and vitamin e.

why it’s skinfood

skin health is deeply connected to nutrition, and this bowl checks all the boxes.

antioxidants to fight free radicals, omega-3 fatty acids for hydration and plumpness, fiber for gut health (which directly impacts skin clarity), and protein for repair and regeneration.

every ingredient was chosen with glowing skin in mind.

substitution options

• greens: swap spinach for arugula or mixed greens.
• grain: quinoa, brown rice, or barley work in place of farro.
• protein: roasted chickpeas can replace edamame.
• fruit: pears or pomegranate seeds are great swaps for apple.
• dressing: if you don’t have miso, use a squeeze of lemon and a pinch of sea salt in your tahini dressing.

storage

this salad stores surprisingly well.

you can prepare all of the components ahead of time, store them in airtight containers in the fridge, and assemble right before eating.

the roasted vegetables, farro, and edamame will last up to 4 days, while the dressing can be kept for about 5 days.

if you’re making it for meal prep, keep the apples and dressing separate until serving to keep everything fresh and crisp.
