Ingredients

For the Salad
  • 2 cups spinach
  • 2 cups chopped kale massaged with olive oil
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 TBS hemp hearts
Green Goddess Dressing
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 1/2 medium avocados or 2 small, pitted and fleshed
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves a small handful
  • 2 TBS Tahini
  • 1 TBS apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp minced garlic 
  • 1/2 tsp pink salt to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Toss spinach and kale in large bowl, top with cherry tomatoes and hemp hearts. Set aside.
  2. In a small blender or food processor add all of your dressing ingredients–if using a NutriBullet it helps if you add the ingredients in the order above–and process until smooth. Dressing is pretty thick, so if you want it thinner you can add more water 1-2 tablespoons at a time.
  3. Toss dressing with salad, or serve individually. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Add your favorite lean protein and additional veggies for a filling lunch salad!
