Protein Punch: A spin on the traditional salad





Try out these 'salads' for your next lunch or dinner. 
Both are vegetarian friendly, but would be great with a
 lean protein added in if you prefer. 


  • Quinoa Salad


  • 1 cup quinoa
  • 1/2 cup chopped red onion
  • 1/2 pound fresh hearts of palm thinly sliced 
  • 1/4 cup red-wine vinegar
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 cup packed flat-leaf parsley leaves
  • 4 sun-dried tomatoes chopped


Cook Quinoa according to box directions.  
Mix all ingredients into the quinoa in a 
separate bowl when finished cooking.
Combine
Serve
Eat :)


Missy Veggie Salad

A Clean salad for you to try and one of my favorites
Best served Chilled



Create your own 3 bean Salad

Choose your favorite 3 beans fresh or canned and combine 
in a bowl. Add a dash of salt and pepper and 1/2 sweet onion chopped 
for a great salad filled with healthy carbs and protein!

My favorites are Garbanzo, Kidney and Black Beans.  I like to toss mine
 with onions and hot sauce! yuuuummmmmmm


Enjoy and Healthy Munching
