SHORTCUTS
What type of salad is the healthiest?
The healthiest salads have a green leafy base, and combine fresh vegetables with lean protein, grains and seeds, and good quality fats.
What is the healthiest dressing for a salad?
For a healthy salad dressing, it should include olive oil, vinegar or lemon and spices. No mayonnaise or sauces full of fats and sugar.

Are salads healthy to eat everyday?
It depends!
If the salad has the right mix of vitamins, protein, and good fats, and we make healthy salads with different-colored vegetables, proteins like eggs, chicken, or prawns and legumes, then salads can be a complete and balanced meal.
