After a solid two months of holiday parties and vacations, my body was begging me
for a break.
A big one!
Large, chewy, nutritious salads have always been my go-to food for a flavorful and
filling way to treat my body right!
I love to mix a variety colors, tastes and textures to create a healthy yet satisfying
dining experience.
By mixing crunchy celery, carrots and cabbage with super greens, peppers, cucumbers,
and tomatoes tastes amazing but when you add zesty red onions, olives, kimchi and
and topping it all off with creamy avocado and dressing–each mouthful is sure to be
a healthy, happy, vitamin, mineral and fiber-rich flavorfest!
I hope you like it as much as I do!
Of course, you can make it your own by substituting whatever greens and things
you have on hand–as long as your end-result is crunchy and munch-worthy!
