Method

  • To prepare vegetables, thinly slice (if you have a mandoline this will make this step alot faster!)
  • Add all the vegetables to a large bowl. Add protein of choice & top with a handful of nuts and seeds.
  • To make the dressing: Using a food processor blend garlic, avocado, lemon/lime juice, oil, yoghurt, water and salt & pepper together until you reach a creamy consistency.
  • Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss all ingredients together.

For the dressing: you may need to add a little more oil, water or yoghurt to reach desired consistency. This might take a little bit of playing around to get it right but it’ll be worth it!

If short on time, you could purchase store bought shredded veggies.

Protein Recommendations: Chicken, beef, salmon, tofu etc OR as specified in your menu plan.

Lactose free adaptable: Use lactose free yoghurt for the dressing to make this completely lactose free!
