Delightfully Colorful Plant-based Salad

DSCN0526With Resurrection Sunday around the corner, salad may be an item you are serving at your Easter table. Various combinations to make a healthy, tasty salad is endless, but some days it is nice to let someone else do the creative thinking for you. Adding fruit to your salad is refreshing to your taste buds! Here is one of my typical, colorful salads.

β™₯ Ingredients β™₯

1 box mixed greens
2 heads romaine lettuce
cherry tomatoes
carrots
mushrooms
red cabbage
yellow, red, orange sweet peppers
avocado
kidney beans
sesame seeds
dried cranberries or cherries
cuties, halos, or mandarin oranges

Tips

– Boxed organic greens makes preparation so much faster.

– Other items you might enjoy: red, white, or green onions, garbanzo beans, black beans, green peppers, or kalamata olives.

– Other tasty fruits to add:Β  blueberries, sliced strawberries, or fresh pineapple.

– This salad holds up for three days in the refrigerator, although, I recommend adding the avocado right before eating if you are purposely making it for several meals.
