Summer is quickly approaching and in California, it’s pretty much already here with all the beautiful sunrises and sunsets. This is the season where I crave ALL the salads. all the time! Quick, easy, delicious, and light with a lot of texture and flavor! This salad is packed with healthy ingredients, and makes you feel great afterwards, especially on a hot day! Not to mention, it is ready to enjoy in 10 minutes! If you have been wanting to eat more healthy, and add more vegetables to your diet and felt like you don’t have time, worry no more! If you have 10 minutes in your day and like vegetables, this is it my friend, this is YOUR salad!
If you don’t eat eggs, you can substitute with any other protein of your choice, and if you don’t eat cheese, feel free to use vegan cheese or omit that part. My favorite part of this recipe is the dressing. I will be using the Green Goddess dressing from Trader Joe’s. One thing you will learn about me is that I almost NEVER buy dressing! There is a good reason for that. I loveee dressing, BUT about 95% of pre-made dressing at the grocery store is filled with toxic omega 6 oils. Cutting out most of these oils was a HARD decision, but it was a personal one. I am happy to say that the Green Goddess dressing from Trader Joe’s is one of the the cleanest ones I can find that also tastes good! (Yay no bad oils in there) You are more than welcome to use your favorite dressing for this salad (No judgement , I promise) Enjoy this delicious salad and please let me know if you make it.
