Keep in mind not because you are eating a salad; it is healthy. Remember the quality of your salad matters. Some salads are bad. Why? Easy, the salad dressing.
So making your own salad dressing is always a better option, in fact making your own salad at home is even more beneficial.
Imagine a salad with healthy fats, nuts, and seeds….. that is what I am sharing with you today.
