 This dish is sooooo super simple, delish, and yet packed with cancer fighting , inflammation reducing,  Super Foods ! I love how incredibly versatile it is ! You can use it simply as a salad . I like to put it over wild rice , quinoa , or farro for a complete meal . If you're  still a transitioning carnivore or live among them you can just use this as a side for them , and make it into a complete meal for you without really doing any additional work . I got through many transitional years doing stuff like this . It would go well with a grilled organic chicken breast or Salmon . Some roasted sweet potatoes would be magnificent on the side and they are always a family hit . The key is to be super creative . Creating meals can be so much fun and fast ! I created this dish because I am not a huge fan of raw broccoli but want the health benefits of it but needed it super palatable . I could eat the entire bowl all by myself so my mission was accomplished !  I hope you enjoy it as much as we do !

 
 
 
 
 

 Ingredients :

 
2 Large heads of broccoli
 
3-4 med-large tomatoes
 
2 avocados
 
a bunch of scallions
 
the juice of one lime
 
Himalayan salt to taste
 
 
 
 
 

 Directions for Avocado Mayo :

 
1. smash two avocados in a bowl
 
2. add the lime juice
 
3. mix together and add the Himalayan salt to taste
 
 

Directions for the salad :

 
1.chop up the scallions
 
2. chop up the broccoli into just small pieces of the florets
 ( I always save the stems for juicing )
 
3. chop the tomatoes
 
4. massage the avocado mayo into the salad by hand
 
* the lime juice will keep the avocado from turning
 
 
 
The approximate cost to make this salad that serves Four is about $10
you can make it cheaper by using a regular onion and grape Bragg's apple cider vinegar in place of the lime juice.
 
 
The key to buying food is to get the most nutritional , healing, cancer fighting ingredients for your money and this recipe here does the trick !
