I read recently that when you eat greens the vitamins and minerals are better absorbed if a food high in vitamin C is part of the mix. Good candidates are oranges, tomatoes and blueberries. I added strawberries to this one along with tomatoes.
1 box (5 oz.) Baby Spinach and Spring Salad Mix
1 quart fresh strawberries sliced
1 avocado diced
½ cup chopped celery
1 small yellow zucchini diced
1 cup baby carrots sliced
4 ounces mushrooms sliced
1 chicken thighs, seasoned, baked and shredded
½ cup sunflower seeds
Dressing
½ cup olive oil
¼ cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon poppy seeds
2 teaspoons grated lemon grass ( can use tablespoon of lemon
juice instead)
Combine all of the vegetables and mix until evenly
distributed. Add the chicken on the top.
Combine all the dressing ingredients and pour over the mixture. Add the
sunflower seeds. Serves 6
