But wait, there’s more…here’s a salad recipe for you!
You didn’t think I’d just leave you hanging, did you? I wanted to leave you with a super quick, delicious, and filling salad recipe that’s great to take to work for lunch, pack for the kids’ school lunch, or enjoy for a quick, light but satisfying meal for yourself. I made it for dinner last nightand I didn’t feel like sharing…just saying!
Ingredients for salad:
- 1/2 a salad bowl full of romaine lettuce, 1/2 a salad bowl full of arugula
- 1 carrot, thinly sliced
- 1 celery stalk, thinly sliced
- 1 plum/Roma tomato, chopped
- 2 tbsps each of sunflower seeds and chia seeds
- 1 cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1 tbsp each of fresh basil and parsley
Add these ingredients into a salad bowl with your choice of homemade dressing. I used my Lemony Plum Cider Vinegar dressing (recipe in this post), but you can keep it as simple as olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper if you want and it will still taste great.
This recipe is a great example that eating healthy can be simple, affordable, flavorful, and super-quick to prepare. It’s also an example that a salad can be made into a filling meal without adding meat or a fattening, creamy dressing–instead we add a flavorful dressing and healthy seeds for protein, essential fatty acids, and texture. Enjoy!
