Wild Child Salad

Ingredients

• ​2-3 cups of mixed salad greens (I use a combination of pre-washed arugula, romaine, kale, & leaf lettuce)

• ​4-6 ounces of cooked chicken

• ​½ cup cooked black rice - cook according to package instructions, I cook mine in bone broth for added benefits

• ​⅔-¾ cup roasted shredded brussel Sprouts - I buy these already prepared for ease

• ​⅓ cup radicchio or shredded cabbage ( you can buy coleslaw or already shredded cabbage)

• ​2 TBSP dried cranberries - (no sugar added)

• ​2 TBSP pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds

• ​¼ cup goat cheese

• ​2 TBSP Primal Kitchen Balsamic Dressing or make this

• WALNUT BALSAMIC DRESSING HAS 5 KEY INGREDIENTS

  • ¼ cup raw walnuts, soaked in hot water to soften

  • ¼ cup balsamic vinegar

  • ¼ cup or less Maple Syrup

  • ¼ cup water

  • 1 garlic clove, minced

  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard

    Blend together...yumm!

Cook chicken via your favorite method - baking, Instant Pot, or grilling.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Add shredded Brussels sprouts to a baking sheet and drizzle 1-2 TBSP Olive Oil or avocado oil. Bake for about 15 minutes or until slightly brown and crispy. Option: put in air fryer..

While your Brussels sprouts roast, start to build your salad. Add your pre-washed salad greens.

Chop your cabbage and add to salad greens. Add black rice, chicken, dried cranberries, pumpkin seeds, and goat cheese.

Once your Brussels sprouts are done add them to your salad. Drizzle with balsamic dressing and ENJOY!!!
