Sassy Salad
Sassy Salad
If you are like me, then you think salad is boring. Boring, boring, boring. Yet I eat it most days because our bodies don't find it boring. It loves it! So how to make a boring dish exciting? Add lots of stuff!
The above dinner is filling and delicious. This sassy salad is accompanied by chilli Tempeh sticks(fried in a little olive oil and a few drops of Tamari) and steamed kale. I've been making the best of the massive bunch of kale I found at the Vegan International food festival at Abbotsford convent on the weekend. I've been looking for it everywhere! (sidenote, anyone know where to get Kale on demand in Melbourne, let me know stat!)
Sassy Salad Recipe:
Some lettuce mix
1/4 cup Alfalfa sprouts
1/4 cup Mung bean sprout mix
2 Tbsp Quinoa
1/2 mushroom
1/4 carrot
1/4 small cucumber
1/8 fresh beetroot
1/4 avocado
Optional - Olives and Capers.
Dressing - Olive oil, ume vinegar, a dash of mirin and a sprinkle of sesame seeds
Method:
Chop veggies into desired shapes, throw it all together in an eye pleasing way. Dress and sprinkle with some sesame seeds. This is large, satisfying and ultimately a delightfully cleansing dinner.
You DO make friends with Salad!
