It's Too Yummy Tuesday!
On select Tuesdays I share delicious recipes either inspired by my books or that are just plain delicious!
My daughter wanted to hit up the local burger joint recently, but I wanted something a bit lighter. On their menu, they offered a salad that was loaded with superfoods. I loved it and wanted to try it at home. Thought I'd share my version with you after last month's fry-heavy tempura recipe!
Superfood Salad
Ingredients
1 cup of baby spinach
1 cup of chopped kale
1 avocado, diced
1/2 cup baby carrots, chopped
1/4 cup craisins
1/4 cup chopped almonds
1 Tbsp Chia or flax seeds
1/2 cup cooked quinoa
Your choice of salad dressing (I like raspberry vinaigrette, a spoonful of plain yogurt, or lemon juice tossed with olive oil.)
Combine greens in a bowl, toss in remaining ingredients except quinoa if you prefer to serve it in a scoop on the side. Drizzle with dressing. Serves 2.
