Hello! I'm sure that these are all fine salads, and I will likely try a few, but I was disappointed to see that virtually all of them contain nuts. Unfortunately, two of my guests this year have nut allergies. Also, strawberries in a fall salad recipe?

Hi, there are four nut free salads from this roundup: Vegan Fall Harvest Salad with Kale and Pumpkin; Sweet Potato Noodle Salad with Chickpeas and Rocket; Harvest Kale Salad (I guess you can skip the strawberries if you want); Warm Brussels Sprout and Kale Salad. Hope that helps!
