In order to keep your body running efficiently, greens are one of the most important food groups. They are the most nutrient-dense of all foods and full of alkaline minerals and fiber, and, they make up your key Beauty Foods, regenerating and purifying your cells, and keeping your skin glowing your hair sting and shiny! I mean … greens are the key ingredient for a healthy happy body!
Seaweed is much more nutrient dense than any land vegetables. It is an excellent source of micronutrients including folate, calcium, magnesium, zinc, iron, and selenium. More importantly, seaweed is a great source of iodine.⠀
So, I thought it would be great to share my favorite salad! I eat it all the time! I usually have it on a side with some protein source, vegan or not. ⠀
