🥗 How to make a balanced salad
1️⃣ Add plenty of veg
– for colour, crunch + fibre
2️⃣ Add a protein
– e.g. chicken, tuna, tofu, eggs, beans
3️⃣ Add a grain / carb
– e.g. quinoa, brown rice, corn, beans, sweet potato
4️⃣ Add a healthy fat
– e.g. avocado, olive oil, nuts, seeds
✨ Why it’s important:
Salad veg are great as they give you fibre, vitamins, and antioxidants. However, on their own, they won’t keep you full for long.
Adding protein, carbs, and healthy fats supports steady energy, and keeps you feeling satisfied for hours — not minutes.
Balanced salads = nutrient-rich and filling.
