Kale and Spinach Salad

September 11th, 2009 by Yuri Leave a reply »

Got in late from soccer practice and wanted some good eats before the night’s end.

But i didn’t want anything to heavy since it was already 9:30pm and I usually hit the sack around midnight.

So I got together a bunch of leafy greens from the fridge and made a simple, yet delicious salad.

Here’s what I threw together:

5 stalks of kale, stemmed and chopped
1 handful of watercress, stemmed and chopped
2 handfuls of baby spinach
8 cherry tomatoes, halved
1 sheet of nori, diced
2 tbsp pine nuts

Dressing:

2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp flax oil
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Pinch of salt and pepper

Pretty simple to make. Just toss everything together and enjoy.

Great alkalinity. Tons of minerals from the nori (seaweed). And good healthy fats from the olive oil and flax oil in the dressing.

And you’d think that I would still be hungry afterwards, but I wasn’t.

It’s important to remember that your body craves minerals, not calories. Thus, by eating mineral-rich whole foods you satisfy your appetite much more readily, without all the excess calories!
