About this Recipe

By: Wilna Eksteen

Tired of boring salads? Colour blocking ingredients is a easy guide to use if you run out of ideas. Your best inspiration for dishes should be your fridge. That is why it’s so important to buy fresh, seasonal, beautiful ingredients. It is a lot easier to get a good healthy dish out of tasty ingredients than trying to “fix” untasty ingredients with unhealthy additions and condiments. Give this easy all green salad and yummy dressing a try, you will not be disappointed. Bonus: Fibre packed starch included, only need to add a protein and you have yourself a complete, balanced meal.
