Ingredients:
4 cups mixed greens
1 carrot
1 yellow bell pepper
1/2 cucumber
1 cup pico de gallo
1/4 avocado

Dressing Ingredients:
1/4 cup of cashews
2 tbsp of nutritional yeast
Juice of 1 lime
1/2 serrano pepper or jalapeño
Pinch of salt

Method:

Chop all your raw veggies to your desired size.
Pack your greens into a large Mason jar, then layer the other veggies on top of the greens. Finish with the avocado to avoid smashing it.
Blend all the dressing ingredients until smooth. Place the dressing in a separate small container. When you’re ready to eat, pour the dressing over the salad and mix well!

Tips:

Leftover dressing can be stored in the fridge for a day or two.
If possible, soak the cashews for 2-4 hours before using them to ensure better digestion and absorption.
Remember to chew well to help your body easily digest the raw veggies.
You can use kale, romaine, spinach or any leafy green for the base of the salad.
