Gut-Loving Simple Salad
I’m convinced this salad really does it all - and it takes less than 3 minutes to put together. What more could you ask for!? Now I’m not saying this is my favorite salad of all time, but it is a go-to for it’s ease and benefits. It’s great for your gut health, it’s hydrating and it’s got plenty of beautifying nutrients like anti-inflammatory omegas, iron and sulfur.
Since this salad isn’t super filling, I typically eat it when I’m craving something a little heartier and pair it with a sandwich at lunch or pasta for dinner. That way I know I’m getting some great nutrients in but I can still eat what I’m craving. Try it out and let me know what you think!
