About the Recipe:

This is such an easy meal prep side salad! It’s light, fresh and has lots of healthy fats, polyphenols and plant powered goodness. You can make a big batch, and then pair with your favorite proteins for a veggie packed, delicious, wholesome meal! I also love to remix the ingredients depending on what I have handy, and add some extra veg where I can!

Tips and tricks:

Veggies: I wouldn’t say that I have have “tricks” for this recipe. However I have found that when I remix the ingredients I like to add either roasted root veggies, or blanched cruciferous veggies. My personal favorites are roasted zucchini and carrots. As well as blanched broccoli and cauliflower.

Herbs: There are a great many herbs that would do fantastic in this dish. Some of my personal favorites in addition to the recipe, are dill, basil, and mint!

Cassava Orzo: I find that when I cook this, it can be a little starchy, so I like to rinse it after its done cooking, then toss with a little olive oil to prevent from sticking.
