My Husband led me to make myself this healthy and delicious salad a while ago. I make it in the morning and then put it in the refrigerator and eat it for lunch and dinner as a meal on its own, but you can also make it as a side dish. You can play around with the ingredients and add different things, but this is how I like to eat it.
