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.
Prep Time 20 mins
Total Time 20 mins
Course Main Course, Salad, Side Dish
Servings 2

Ingredients
  

  • 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

Instructions
 

  • 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.

Notes

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.
