Easy Seaweed Salad Recipe
This Easy Seaweed Salad Recipe is so delicious you won’t be able to kelp yourself from it (get it?)! Salads are an amazing way to pack in your vegetables and fiber for the day. There are a few common misconceptions that salads have to be boring, tasteless, or just unappealing. However, this is not the case! Salads can be a great way to nourish your body and keep you feeling full throughout the day.
Featuring 3 vegetables and a 2-ingredient dressing, this salad can be whipped up in a pinch! It’s a good one to keep in the back of your mind for those times where you are scrambling to get a side of vegetables together or you’re trying to quickly pack a lunch you actually want to eat. The tahini dressing will provide healthy fats to help keep you full for longer while the green vegetables will provide you with much-needed micronutrients and carbohydrates to fuel your day. I love adding seaweed to any of my salads because I love the depth and flavor it adds. It is a tasty and nourishing way to spice up your salads.
