Nutty Salad



Salad is a nice, safe thing to have on this diet. Salad can be just lettuce and dressing, but if you have the time to make it a whole meal, then try adding in some or all of the following components:








Recipe:

(Creates 1 Serving)

1 Bowlful of Organic Spring Mix
Coconut Oil - or - Olive Oil
Apple Cider Vinegar - or - Rice Vinegar
1 Stalk of Celery, diced
1 Thin Slice of a medium Yellow Onion, diced
1/4 Cup Pumpkin Seeds
1/4 Cup Sunflower Seeds
1/4 Cup Almonds
1/4 Cup Pecans
1/4 Cup Hazelnuts
1/2 a medium Tomato, diced
1/3 of a Red Bell Pepper, diced
Fresh Parsley Leaves
Fresh Basil Leaves
Rosemary
Oregano
Thyme
Ginger


Directions: 

Put the spring mix in a bowl. Wash and chop the veggies you have available from the list above. Put those in the bowl. 


















(I personally think parsley stalks are delicious, so I put those in as well. You don't have to.)

















Sprinkle nuts and seeds of your choice on top. 


















Top it off with some coconut oil and rice vinegar, my personal favorite. You could also use olive oil and apple cider vinegar. The four of these are very healthy. 


















Sprinkle the spices on top, and you're ready to eat!
