I have been working with my doctor to figure out why I have been having a slate of new food issues. She told me to go on an elimination diet to narrow it down adn so I have been eating way more vegetables as a result. I used to think I ate lots of veggies anyway, but had no clue until I started my new diet. Here is a recipe for a hearty salad which has the added bonus of being vegan in case you need to adhere to that consideration.
Serves 2 as a main course salad, 4 as a side:
1 5 oz box baby romaine with herbs salad mix
1/2 c Pumpkin seeds
1 1/2 c Cooked yam chunks
1/4 c Dried cranberries
1/2 c Kidney beans
1/3 cup black olives (kalamata would work, but the standard salty kind compliment this salad a bit better)
Dressing:
2 TBSP Dill
4 TBSP Veganaise
3 TBSP lemon juice
Toss all of the above together until evenly coated. You can even throw a medium poached or fried egg on top.
Enjoy!
