build-quick-easy-salad-bowl
The Lunch Salad Bowl is super simple and fast! Follow this step by step guide: 1) High Fiber Pseudo Grains- add your choice of cooked millet, buckwheat, wild rice, or amaranth. Or skip the grains all together. You can also add some roasted butternut squash. 2) Protein- pick your protein! Salmon, turkey, chicken, and grass feed beef are great ideas, but get creative! Try wild salmon or tuna, sardines, or anchovies. Just make sure if they are canned that they are not in vegetable oil (olive oil is ok). Vegetarians can enjoy black beans, pinto beans, lentils, or chickpeas. 3) To make this salad keto friendly, skip #1 and make sure any meat or fish protein. Omit beans. 4) Add arugula, spinach, Romaine, spring mix, etc. 5) Top with your favorite chopped veggies: cucumbers, peppers, radishes, broccoli, and more. Even try things like pumpkin and sunflower seeds. 6) Dressing options: Dresses 2-3 salads Cilantro Lime Vinaigrette (KETO friendly)
