Howdy y’all!
Thank you to everyone who has been asking about the status of my blog and requesting updates! It’s been quite the hectic month and unfortunately, I had to put my Garden of Eat-in on the back burner. From coast-to-coast work travels and countless events to house searching and family, I just haven’t had the time to get anything up. I really hope to get back into the normal swing of things as things settle down a little.
To keep the energy levels up and the heart happy I highly recommend making super simple salads with lots of veggies and proteins (especially as the weather gets warmer). In the salad recipe below, I used toasted walnuts (one of the best plant sources for protein and antioxidants) and edamame (for extra protein and isoflavons). You can’t go wring with this one!
Super Simple Dressing:
- 1 cup extra virgin olive oil
- ¼ cup rice wine vinegar
- 4 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp honey
Add on’s:
- Sliced Red Peppers
- Toasted Walnuts
- Edamame (I buy the kind already shelled and frozen – just boil them in salted water for about 4 minutes and drizzle a tsp of sesame oil and lime juice on them for extra flavour)
- Cucumbers
- Red leaf lettuce
- Romaine
