Baby Super Greens Salad

This baby super greens salad is simple enough for weeknight dinners but flavorful enough to serve for company.

The homemade dressing makes for a delicious elevation, but it’s still totally easy with only 5 everyday ingredients. Watercress is high in vitamins C and K. Kale and spinach are also good sources of vitamin C as well as minerals like calcium and folate. Avocado provides not only a healthy fat, but plenty of fiber, too.

Together, this greens salad hits three of my Fab Four categories – fat, fiber and greens. Throw a protein on top like seared salmon or sliced chicken breast, and you’ve got a blood sugar balancing and satiating Fab Four meal.
