I believe it is never too early for a healthy salad, especially if you are trying to reset your system after a day of overindulging! I didn’t eat so great yesterday, and my body was craving more raw veggies. I really needed to start my day off on the right foot, and what better way then to have a big salad with raw ingredients!
This salad is prefect for a fresh morning start. You can add some protein to your salad if you want, too! I enjoyed my salad just like this and had a brown rice protein shake. Yummy!
