Below are just a few of the salads we've been eating lately. I love mixing fruit into fresh lettuce salads. I also made an apple/pear/pecan salad that had a light blue cheese dressing that turned out awesome. I'll get pictures of it the next time we make it.
What we eat:
Breakfast: We almost always have a fruit salad with sprouted buckwheat for breakfast. Sometimes we'll have egg beaters and left-over steamed potatoes. In the winter I love oatmeal with almond milk, banana and red grapes.Lunch: Lunch is normally a salad or sandwich. I'll post pictures later of an awesome tofu cream cheese/pickle/avocado sandwich. We also have tofu sandwiches with dill pickle and lots of lettuce or spinach. I normally use sprouted grain bread or a whole grain sandwich thin.
Dinner: Dinner varies greatly. Sometimes it is steamed veggies (potatoes, cauliflower, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, sweat potatoes, etc.) with sauteed tofu or a garden burger. Other times it's just stir-fry veggies with some kind of nut butter sauce. I also love to make veggie soup in the crock pot in a curry coconut base. Serve the soup with couscous and/or brown rice. In the Summer, we sometimes have a large salad for dinner if we didn't have one for lunch.
This way of eating is so easy!!
