    Spicy roasted chickpeas. Dry them, toss in olive oil, cumin, chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, s&p and bake till crunchy, about 40 min, shake the pan every so often so they cook evenly

    Grilled salmon. I love crab (I even love the imitation crab even though I know it's crappy!) Sundried tomatoes. Cheddar, feta or bleu cheese. Almonds, walnuts, cranberries, sunflower seeds, chia seeds and flax seeds.

    For a different type of salad dressing I sometimes use salsa.

    Avocado and orange is one of my favorite salads. You can just squeeze some extra oj for a dressing. Works super well on baby spinach.

    Lately I've been doing a lot of greens, chicken breast, olives, mushrooms, broccoli doused in balsamic vinegar.

    I'm kind of obsessed with salads, I always make sure to have one in the fridge, whenever I need a quick meal. My favorites are

    Smoked Salmon, Avocado, Beets, Edamame, Goat Cheese, & Balsamic Vinegar (not Vinagrette)

    Pumpkin Seeds, Sweet Potato, Goat Cheese, Apples, Chicken, Dried Cranberries, Apple Cider Vinegar

    Broccoli, Apples, Plain Greek Yogurt, Dried Cranberries, Pumpkin Seeds, Walnuts, Apple Cider Vinegar

    I always use fresh spinach or a spring mix for the base. I normally opt for high fat toppings (avocado, cheese, and nuts) instead of an actual dressing. Oh and make sure you always season your salads, just adding salt and pepper can make a salad taste a million times better.

    Avocado salad dressing! Using a food processor throw in 1 avocado juice of one lemon 1/4 cup white wine vinegar salt and pepper to taste....and while its blending , slowly pour in 3/4 cups of extra virgin olive oil. This way it doesn't separate when you store it. And that's it! Makes 1cup of dressing .... 2tbsp per serving
