Salads don’t have to be boring and unsatisfying. Rethink your favourite salad and turn it into a healthy balanced ‘nourish bowl,’ using the following steps..
1. Add a quality grain - e.g. ½-1 cup cooked quinoa, barley or brown rice.
2. Add a handful of greens – e.g. rocket, baby spinach or kale.
3. Add your veggies – e.g. leftover roasted veggies, grated vegetables or whatever you have in the fridge.
4. Add a protein – e.g. 1-2 hard boiled eggs, red kidney beans, shredded chicken or a tin of tuna.
5. Add some healthy fat – e.g. avocado, nut and/or extra-virgin olive oil
6. Top with texture and flavour e.g. nuts, seeds, avocado, lemon juice a dressing or pesto.
