Lunch-Salads-01

Kale has been a “hot” topic for quite some time and for good reason! This super food has been shown to lower your risk of developing cancer, provide important fiber for your digestive tract, and is key for liver detoxification. Kale is packed with lots of health benefits but for me the most important thing is that it is a high nutrient dense leafy green packed with lots of Vitamin A, C and K, Folate, Alpha-linolenic acid, Lutein and Zeaxanthin. This is definitely a satisfying salad and you will love it!
