Raw Green Salad with Honey Mustard Dressing (Paleo, Vegan)
Getting some alkalising greens in made easy with this raw green salad tossed in a honey mustard dressing, even my kids are loving all the greens here! It’s a very simple salad and easy to make and what I love the most is that kale doesn’t get so soggy the next day so you can make a little extra to take to the office, which also makes it a great pot luck lunch or picnic dish. Feel free to add some protein like an egg or sliced chicken breast the next day to change it up into a complete meal for lunch.
