MENSTRUALPHASE CREAMY KALE SALAD🥗
15 mins prepServes 2
This salad is packed with ingredients to help support our hormones during our period! It includes leafy greens like kale or spinach to help replenish iron and healthy fats to help with energy loss due to hormone levels being at their lowest. Can be meal prepped by storing massaged kale and dressing separately.
1. Add a few handfuls of kale to a large bowl and coat with 1 teaspoon of olive oil or lemon juice, or both. Massage until the kale becomes softened, then put it aside.
2. Add all dressing ingredients (1/4 cup olive oil, 1/4 cup tahini, 3 tbsp lemon juice, 2 tsp honey, 2 tsp dijon mustard, salt and pepper to taste, and 1/2 cup water) to a separate bowl and mix until well combined.
3. Add pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds to a food processor and pulse until lightly grounded (do not over blend, or they will turn into a powder).
4. Slice and cube the avocado.
5. Add the cubed avocado, dressing, and the nut and seed mixture to the massaged kale.
6. Mix everything together and enjoy!
