Power Salad – Yum!

🥗Today I have not one … but TWO recipes for you!

It’s a salad-and-dressing combo that is a perfect make-ahead lunch.

You can prep this in a mason jar or reusable container – and it will keep in the fridge for 2 days.

Protein-Packed Power Salad

(serves 1)

3 big handfuls of baby spinach

2 Tbsp honey-mustard dressing (recipe below)

1 2.5 oz (70 g) pouch tuna in water

½ cup (80 g) canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed

1 medium carrot, shredded

3-5 grape tomatoes, halved

Toss the spinach and dressing in a bowl, then add the tuna, chickpeas, carrot, and tomatoes. Serve immediately or store well-covered in the refrigerator for 2 days.

Honey-Mustard Dressing

(makes 8 tablespoons)

1 clove garlic, minced

1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar

1½ tsp Dijon mustard

½ tsp honey

Sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste (1-2 pinches each)

⅓ cup (80 ml) extra-virgin olive oil

Whisk the garlic, vinegar, mustard, honey, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Slowly whisk in oil.
