Detox Salad

vegan / dairy free / gluten free

This is the ULTIMATE detox salad filled with so many nutrients, you can’t help but feel like the epitome of health when eating it.

I love a bright, green salad filled all the healthy things. Sometimes I crave a salad like this after a weekend of not really eating the most healthy of foods (aka pizza, pasta, repeat). This salad is loaded kale, broccoli, and cabbage (loaded with antioxidants), grapefruit and lemon (both filled with tons of vitamin C), roasted chickpeas (for a plant-based protein), avocado (for healthy fat), persian cucumbers, parsley and cilantro, and a lemon agave vinaigrette.

• persian cucumbers

• grapefruit

• lemon

• chick peas

• parsley

• cilantro

• olive oil
