Detox Salad
Detox Salad
Spring is a great time to start eating salads again. The weather is warmer so we don’t feel the same need to warm comfort foods. To make a nice spring salad try adding some of the natural detoxifiers mentioned below.
- ½ cup hemp oil (or extra virgin olive oil)
- ¼ cup cilantro (chopped)
- ½ clove garlic (minced)
- 2 lemons (juiced)
- Pinch sea salt
Good, naturally detoxifying salad ingredients include:
- leafy greens (including kale, bok choy, spinach, arugula and dandelion greens)
- fresh herbs (including parsley, basil, cilantro, rosemary and oregano)
- garlic (or ginger root)
- onions, leeks and chives
- berries (such as blackberries, raspberries, strawberries and blueberries)
Chop all vegetables small.
Combine all dressing ingredients in a small jar and shake well.
- Mix dressing with the chopped vegetables.
- This salad increases in flavor as it sits.
Be creative and know that you are doing a good thing for your body. Above, you will find ingredients for a simple salad dressing from Joyous Health.
A natural salad dressing like the one we use on this detox salad will keep well in a cool place for a week or more. Note if you keep it in the fridge (not necessary unless your house is very warm) the oil may harden a little, but will liquefy again at room temp.
