Check out this delicious salad recipe for a fresh new taste as we head into the warmer months, borrowed from my friend Joy McCarthy, Holistic Nutritionist and corporate wellness speaker http://www.joyoushealth.ca.
"What does kale + orange + omega3 equal? A beautifying, satisfying, detoxifying and brain-boosting lunch. This recipe was all that and more! Forget the old notion that healthy food is tasteless, bland and boring because this couldn’t be further from the truth. If you are stuck in sandwich-lunch-land then you must join me on my healthy island of delicious lunch bowls.
Ingredients:
Makes 4 generous servings.
This salad is great for a cloudy or damp day because it will brighten your spirit, not only because the omega 3s are so brain-loving, but it has such a fresh and uplifting taste."

Ingredients:
- 6-8 handfuls of kale
- 3/4 cup walnuts
- 2 small oranges sliced
- 1/3 cup sesame or extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 cup brown rice vinegar
- 4 tbsp orange (naturally) flavoured Omega 3 fish oil. (Note: This does NOT have a fishy taste. I used the Genuine Health brand and I bought it from Whole Foods). If you don’t have this or you are vegan, then use hemp or flax oil.
- 1/2 cup fresh mint
- Fresh juice from 1 orange
- 2 tbsp orange rind
Makes 4 generous servings.
