Looking For A Salad For Thanksgiving? We’ve Got You Covered!!!
A hearty Fall salad is a perfect addition to any Thanksgiving spread. And this is no ordinary bowl of lettuce. Here’s the 411 from our fabulous sponsor Sarah Davis of Body Balance 365.
Lettuce: start with a mix of hearty greens—baby kale, romaine, Swiss chard, radicchio or endive
Other “autumnal” veggies: beets, roasted sweet potatoes, acorn or butternut squash
Protein/Fats: roasted pumpkin seeds, pistachios, crushed walnuts, sunflower seeds, or hazelnuts
Fruit: pomegranates (our fave!), chopped apples, pears, or grapes
Dairy (optional): crumbled goat cheese, shaved Parmesan, a sprinkle of blue or Roquefort cheese
Toss with a simple red wine, Dijon vinaigrette. Trust me — you will not have leftovers!”
