Tasty Salad

This is a tame salad, but hey, it's what I have to work with today. I made a creamy herb dressing, try it out! The recipe is below. I will make some other ones at home and bring them in, a blender really helps. This one is easy, though, and uses only a fork and shaking action!

Ingredients for salad:

• 1 tomato
• 1/2 cup onion
• 1 cup sprouted wheat
• salad mix or lettuce
• dressing of choice

Chop up the veggies and add a dressing, either one you already made or the one below. Then stir and mix in some salad greens. Don't forget to mix more greens in when they get eaten up!






Creamy Green Dressing:

• 1 avocado
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 2 tbsp shoyu
• 1/2 cup water
• 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp each of oregano, basil, sage, thyme, pepper
• 1/2 tsp Herbamare

Smoosh up the avocado, or blend it if you have the technology for that, and get it all in a dressing bottle. I just spooned it (the avocado) in a bit at a time, then put the rest in. SHAKE IT, BABY! A lot. Then pour it on something and eat it.

Most Delicious Salad of The Day

This is an unconventional way of making a salad, but it is easier than having to carry around a huge salad bowl, and besides, I really love my little bowl and use it for most everything...

Ingredients:

• 1 ripe avocado
  
• 1 ripe tomato
  
• 1/3 of an onion
  
• 1/2 cup of Life Sprouts® Pro-Vita Mix sprouts (or any sprouts, but these are the best)
  
• Earthbound Farms® Spring Mix (Costco sells it cheap!)
  
• olive oil (Bariani's is the best)
  
• apple cider vinegar (Eden Organics® is very good)
  
• Herbamare to taste
  
• Wholesome Foods® Raw Agave Nectar (optional)
• Ohsawa® Nama Shoyu

Cut up the veggies and put them in the bowl.  In a salad dressing container, I use an empty Agave bottle, put in equal parts olive oil, shoyu and vinegar.  If you make too much use it tomorrow.  I use about 1/4 cup of each for a salad.  Add 1/2 tsp or so of Herbamare (better than plain sea salt) and any other herbs or spices you prefer in a dressing.  
Add 1 Tbsp agave nectar.  Shake it all up and pour it in with the veggies and sprouts.  

Next grab a handful of salad mix and throw it in. It will look like this.



Stir it in and aim your fork for the spring mix.  When you run low on leafy greens and reds, throw another handful in and stir it up.  You will be amazed at how long the dressing and veggies last, just keep stirring to coat the leaves.  You may opt to leave out the salad mix and have a nice little raw soup instead!  

CAUTION: Too big a handful of lettuce will cause some serious spillage when you try to stir!
