My daughter and I have been playing around with salads this summer. This one has organic mixed greens, black olives, mango, walnuts, and a splash of extra virgin olive oil and red wine vinegar. Aside from cutting the mango, it was easy to make.
If we all included a salad in our daily menu, or even replaced an entire meal with one, just imagine how much healthier (and leaner) we'd all be. It's so much easier to get our 5 to 9 fruits and vegetables (and healthy fat) a day that way. We just have to be careful with the dressing we choose. If I can't make my own, I am sure to read the label. I don't want saturated fat and unrecognizable ingredients to outweigh the healthy benefits.
