ANTI-INFLAMMATORY FEEL GOOD SALAD

This quick and simple recipe provides awesome health benefits from the extra-virgin olive, dark leafy greens and freshly squeezed lemon. Plus, the Dijon mustard complements the lemon, adds a little spice and packs powerful flavor.

It’s amazing to think a simple recipe can deliver such amazing health benefits like:  reduce inflammation, provide protective antioxidants, improve gut health, calm your anxiety and help stabilize your mood.

Making your own salad dressing is quick and simple and a preferred alternative to store-bought, as they use the nasty oils(corn, canola, soy, vegetable) that have been treated with chemicals to extract the oil from the plant, then heated to high temperatures to burn off the chemicals.  Not what you were expecting in that bottle of vinaigrette was it?

A simple change can make a profound positive impact on how you feel and think throughout the day.  Try it!
