Greens and Beet Salad

new saladAfter a kettlebell workout yesterday, I made an incredible salad that really hit the spot.

And I’d like to share this wonderful recipe with you.

Sure a salad isn’t your typical post-workout meal but you just can’t beat top quality nutrition (and lots of it) after exerting yourself.

 

Here’s what was in my “Greens and Beet Salad”

2 beets, boiled and chopped
1 head boston lettuce, chopped
1 handful snap peas
1/2 cucumber, chopped
8 cherry tomatoes, halved
8 mushrooms, halved
3 tbsp goat cheese, grated

Dressing:

3 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp flax oil
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Dash of salt and pepper

You’ll notice that YES I did add goat cheese to this salad. Although I’m not a big fan of dairy, I occasionally like a little goat cheese to spice up some of my dishes. 

Also notice that I cooked the beets. Oh my god! They’re not raw!

Who cares.

I find they taste better when they’re softened. 

You don’t have to be 100% raw to enjoy great healthy meals.

However, the more raw, the better. 

Enjoy!
