The Science Behind the Salad
As a functional nutritionist, let me break down why this salad is so beneficial.
Organic strawberries are rich in antioxidants, which help combat free radicals in the body.Feta cheese provides a good source of calcium and protein, essential for bone health.
Organic walnuts are loaded with omega-3 fatty acids, which are great for brain health.
And let's not forget the dressing! Made with organic maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, and Dijon mustard, it not only tastes amazing but also offers numerous health benefits that common salad dressings don’t offer.
I also love adding some protein in there too! I add cold left over organic chicken in the salad to give it a protein boost.
