No Fuss Tomato Salad

Print

With only five ingredients, no cooking required, and ready in TWO minutes, this salad is the perfect meal for a quick lunch or dinner! (Not to mention it’s low-FODMAP, super simple and tasty!)

Small and sweet, the cherry tomatoes paired with salty sun-dried tomatoes and beetroot create an amazing mix that makes each bite so good! The mixed leaves with rocket add a peppery flavor. Full of iron and zinc, the pumpkin seeds add some crunch.

Further Food Commentary:

Sometimes veggies really shine in their most basic form as showcased here in this simple salad. As long as the season is right, tomatoes are sweet enough that dressing is optional! Pair that with sweet beets, tangy sun dried tomatoes and leafy greens and you’ve got a fiber rich, gluten free, vitamin filled meal. Additionally, the acid from the tomatoes will help your body to absorb the iron from the greens and the fat from the pumpkin seeds will keep you full and help you to absorb all those fat soluble vitamins the veggies provide while safe for anyone with a nut allergy!
