This salad is so refreshing and has the perfect amount of complex carbs that make it very energizing but still with really clean ingredients. I recommend this salad a lot to my clients because it is also very easy to make ahead of time when you meal prep and keep in the fridge for lunches during the week. Add some sliced grilled chicken for extra protein and you are good to go!
This recipe makes about 6 servings as a side but as a meal, I think its more like 4 servings. Enjoy!!
