"Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony." Mahatma Gandhi

Good Morning!

I don't know about you but I am feeling so refreshed and relaxed this morning from a long bike ride fueled by last night's dinner! My salad was the most delicious meal I've had in a long time, and I usually feel that way after I've broken a fast. Luckily for me, I have the Farmer's Market a few blocks away, 4x's a week, so organic vegetables are in regular abundance and within my easy grasp.

My salad last night consisted of the following delectable ingredients:
-Baby spinach
-Mixed baby lettuces
-Multiple fresh herbs: basil, dill, cilantro & Italian parsley
-Shaved multi colored carrots
-Chioggia beets (raw beets that are striped like candy canes. They are only available during the summer and tastes incredible sweet.)
-Organic sauerkraut

Other non Farmer's Market ingredients:
-raw nori seaweed
-Bragg's amino acid
-Extra Virgin Olive Oil

I like putting herbs in my salad to bump up the freshness of the leaves, which gives the meal another layer of flavor. The Bragg's Amino Acid and Olive Oil are my dressing, and when combined, add a nice earthy acidity to the salad.

Let me know what was the meal that broke your fast.
