How to Make Golden Glow Salad
As we celebrate the return of longer days and warmer weather, we have been shifting from the dense meals that sustain us through winter to lighter spring fare.
Today, we're making a delicious Sunshine Glow Salad with golden beets, feta cheese, Lemon Olive Oil and White Balsamic Vinegar. It's filling and nutrient dense, yet light and warm like the rays of the sun.
Yes, it's only a few ingredients, but that's what makes it our go to! Simple, delicious, superfoods are what we live for.
The Lemon Olive Oil really brings out the flavor of the beets and complements the feta. Plus the slight sweetness of the White Balsamic is divine. Use both generously, since the healthy fats in the olive oil will help keep you full and the antioxidants in the vinegar help fight free radicals.
