Make it a MONSTER

What is a MONSTER SALAD?  I feel like my health foodie friends and I are always talking about monster, huge, massive, big time salads.  It has been brought to my attention by students and clients that we don't ever go into much more detail than that.  So, I'd like to do a better job of showing you exactly what my MONSTER SALAD has going on.


In this case, I am using a few cooked items, which is not the norm.  I had some eggs and rice I wanted to use up, so in the salad they went.

I fried two eggs in some grass fed butter, and then added grape tomatoes, green peas, and cooked rice to steam a little while the eggs finished cooking.

While that was all happening, I put the following into a nice big ol' bowl:
- organic greens
- hemp seeds
- sunflower seeds
- raisins
- dressed with olive oil and lemon juice



When everything was warmed/cooked to my liking, I threw it on top of the greens.  The runny yolk acts as a kind of dressing.  DELICIOUS!!

When in doubt, throw it on some greens... that's what I always say :)  This is a great way to cut down on gluten and starches.  Anything you would put in a sandwich... put it on greens instead!
