This is a delicious and SUPER nutrient dense salad that will be great to take to your summer get togethers. If you add some grilled chicken to the top or on the side you have an amazing and healthy balanced meal. This also goes great as a side to any dinner. The flavors are fresh and it keeps well for a couple of days (IF you have leftovers!) since itās made up of heartier veggies and fruits! You can easily switch up the berries you choose to use or even the cheese based on your preference. Goat cheese or feta are both great in this salad! ā£

DIRECTIONS:ā£
š¹Use a food processor to finely chop or shave both the Brussels and kale. Do the same with the spinach but you wonāt want the spinach to be too chopped because itāll get soggy easier. ā£
š¹Combine the Brussels, kale, and spinach into a big salad bowl. ā£
š¹Sprinkle berries, cheese, toasted walnuts and red onion over the top. ā£
š¹Pour dressing over the top (recipe below)ā£
š¹Using tongs, toss the salad until everything is combined.ā£
