There is nothing quite as satisfying as a delicious and nutritious meal – you just know that with each bite your body is glowing and smiling from the inside out. I have been making this salad quite a bit lately, I ADORE how simple it is – because lets face it there is nothing fun about sitting in traffic for an hour after a long day at work and then spending 4 hours in the kitchen trying to create something different, healthy and delicious!
What I love about this salad is how versatile it is, you can swap out the salmon and use a white fish or even some prawns! Perfect for this gorgeous Sydney Summer!
Kale is one of those stunning green superfoods that has had a massive amount of good press at the moment and brussels sprouts are simply an oldie but goodie – both are a nutritional powerhouse! Kale is rich in phytonutrients to enhance liver detoxification, rich in Vitamin C for adrenal and immune support as well as a delicious source of minerals!
