Wholesome Salad Bowl

If you have been following me, you know by now, I believe you are what you eat and when you eat well you will live well. So this concept of a wholesome salad bowl is something I incorporate into my daily life. It’s simple, no fuss, pretty and delicious. I love the anti-inflammatory properties in honey, Turmeric and the spice from my Thaimee Laab chili. This one bowl is full of lovely things. 

Serve 2-4 

Salad

4 cups mixed green salad of your choice

1 cup cucumber or other crunch and crisp vegetables of your chioce

1 cup Ube, cubed and steamed

¼ cup hemp seeds or other grains of choice, or to taste 

Boiled eggs of your choice (see note)

Finishing salt, optional 

Edible flower, option 

Spiced Honey Dijon Dressing 

Serve 4-6 

2 tablespoon Dijon mustard

2 tablespoon olive oil 

2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice and zest

1 tablespoon honey 

½ teaspoon Thaimee Laab Chili 

Pinch of salt 

Step 1: Make a dressing 

In a small mixing bowl, mix everything together until well combined. 

Step 2: Assemble and serve

Toss green salad, cucumber, ube, hemp seeds and spiced honey Dijon dressing together until everything is well combined. 

Transfer to a bowl, add the boiled eggs. Sprinkle a pinch of finishing salt and edible flower and serve. 

Notes:

1. My preference is a 6 mins boiled egg but you can use any cooking time of the eggs to your liking. 

2. I give an egg per person per portion but you can adjust to your preference as well but remember, portion control is always a great idea. 

3. You can add on other sources of protein such as chicken breast, chickpea, avocado and or grilled salmon. 

4. Leftover salad dressing can be stored in a airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
