Gone are the days of boring salads. By having a supply of clean, seasonal greens in the refrigerator, you will be inspired to put together a fresh, and healthy salad on a regular basis. Whether served as a whole meal or a simple side, salads are easy to work with your cooking repertoire. Plus using seeds spices up the salad taste!

One of my favorite seeds is Sunflower seeds. I use it often in salads, smoothies, legumes, and in juice. It’s a superfood, high in Iron, protein, vitamins, and minerals.
