Super Food Detox Salad

These photos have reminded me that the more pretty colors in a meal, THE BETTER. I have been majorly slacking in the fruits and vegetable department lately. Why? Because I haven’t been putting enough time and energy into prepping food in order to have easy access.

That is about to change!

I bought kale for the second time ever in my life. The first time I put it in a smoothie and this time…I’m eatin’ it raw. The day I’m content eating cooked greens is the day I stop eating peanut butter. NEVER!

Really though. I can’t do cooked greens…especially spinach. I don’t know what it is, but spinach is suppose to be eaten raw now wilted!

I made a nummy homemade, simple dressing for this Super Food Detox Salad:

Extra Virgen Olive Oil
Lemon Juice
Honey

Just superb.

Inside the salad is:

Raw Kale
Cooked Quinoa
Fresh Blueberries
Slivered Almonds
Poppy Seeds

Easy, peasy, lemon squeezy.

And in this case. Literally.

Since this was the first time I handled kale in a recipe, I kept things simply. I washed it thoroughly, patted dry, and then cut the stalks off, leaving the crunchy leaves, which I then chopped into bite sized pieces.

want this salad at every meal from now on. I actually thought about throwing half of it in a blender and making a Super Food Detox Smoothie. I bet it wouldn’t be half bad! Just add a frozen banana and a little almond milk. Pure bliss.

Greens- raw or wilted (GROSSS)?
