This is hands down one of my favourite salads. It’s so good it was featured in Issue 4 of Mood Magazine! I meal prep this most weeks in summer and just have it in the fridge ready to add greens and protein to, or have it on it’s own. The great thing is it is also very versatile, if you don’t have an ingredient, I wouldn’t worry about it, just throw in something else or leave it out, just make sure you include some nuts and seeds as this is what adds your fibre and protein.
I’ve also included my all time favourite salad dressing, a creamy tahini & lemon dressing down below.
