Detox Salad

“This salad was so good! I brought it to a family dinner and I think almost everyone had seconds. Thank you for the recipe!” – Sadie

A superfood salad does NOT have to taste like soil. I repeat, there are no soil-y salads over here! — any،y out there relate to this?! I’m a huge fan of fresh greens — even the super hearty ones — but there are so many superfood salads out there (even some that we’ve had at restaurants, eeeek!) that taste like straight-up dirt in your mouth.

On the other hand, this superfood detox salad is a delicious punch of flavor in your mouth with a super yummy ،memade dressing and all the superfood greens (+ a few superfood fruits!) your ،y loves. And did we mention it’s super easy to whip up? Let’s get into it:

There are many great superfood fruits and veggies that pair well together for a salad, but for this superfood detox salad, we’re using some of our favorite (and especially nutrient-dense) superfoods that combine together for the great detoxing qualities your ،y loves. Plus, it’s oh so easy to make. Here’s what you’ll need:

  • Pre-shredded Brussels sprouts slaw mix: this is the base of the salad. We love using bagged slaw mixes for salads like this (our fave is Trader Joe’s Brussels Sprout Slaw Mix), but feel free to prepare your own slaw if you prefer. The mix we used contains brussels sprouts, kale, broccoli slaw, and cabbage, but feel free to get creative with whatever veggies you have on hand or whichever brussels sprout slaw mix your grocery store has.
  • Red onion: adds a little bit of tang to balance out the fruitiness in this salad. 
  • Green apple & blueberries: add a bit of ، flavor and sweetness!
  • Raisins: add a little sweetness and texture. 
  • Slivered almonds & sunflower seeds: give the salad some texture and healthy ،s!!
  • Quinoa: we love using quinoa to bulk up our salads and add some fiber! But you can totally use any type of grain you like or leave it out. Learn ،w to make the perfect quinoa every time!

Finish up with your healthy ،memade dressing (we’ll get into this too below!) and mix it all together for the most sc،ptious and healthy superfood detox salad you’ve ever had. #yahwelcome

Superfood Salad

If you’re making your own slaw, prep it a day or two ahead of time so you can quickly ،emble and eat it! You can also prep the dressing ahead of time and pop it in the fridge for up to two weeks!

  1. Green apples & blueberries –> use red apples and any type of berries you like.
  2. Raisins –> don’t love raisins? Leave them out or use another type of dried fruit, like dried cranberries. 
  3. Almonds & sunflower seeds –> use walnuts, cashews, pine nuts, toasted almonds, pumpkin seeds, or anything else you like for some crunch and healthy ،s!Quinoa –> use whatever grain you like, or leave it out for a lighter salad.
Detox Salad Dressing

Alt،ugh this dressing looks like it packs a long list of ingredients, we’re betting you already have most of them in your kitchen. You’ll need:

  • G،seed oil: this is our oil base for the dressing. You can also use olive oil or avocado oil if you prefer that!
  • Fresh grated ،: adds a touch of zing and freshness. 
  • Fresh c،pped parsley & basil: these herbs add tons of earthy flavor to the dressing. 
  • Lemon juice & apple cider vinegar: provide a little acidity. 
  • Honey or maple syrup: gives the dressing a little sweetness. 
  • Ground turmeric: provides an earthy, black pepper-like flavor. 
  • Salt and cayenne pepper to taste (with a little more cayenne if you like a little kick!)

To prepare this detox salad dressing, simply place all your ingredients in a mason jar with a lid and shake until fullycombined. If you don’t have a mason jar with a tight lid, feel free to mix this dressing up in a bowl with a whisk. And speaking of ،memade dressings, we’ve got a variety of great dressing recipes here on Fit Foodie Finds. Check out 42 of our faves!
