Hey there, I’m Richa from My Food Story and I’m here to talk about some healthy eating aka this superfoods green detox salad which I think you’ll agree, everyone needs in their lives! I think you are going to be confused when I say that I don’t really believe in detoxes and punishing myself by going through a juice cleanse and starving myself for 3 glasses of smoothies! But when I made this salad for the first time there were soooo many healthy ingredients going in it that it definitely felt like something that would do good things to my body.

Superfoods Green Detox Salad

Lately, I’ve been going a little crazy over Chickpeas and these crunchy Indian Style Chickpeas are my favorite! They go so well in this salad and add tons of texture and crunch to it. Combined with Quinoa, the ultimate superfood you have a ton of healthy nutrients going into your body every time you take a bite.

When I was making this salad, I wanted it to be a full meal. I hate it when I eat a salad for lunch and then start feeling hungry an hour later – that’s when the craving for chips and chocolate strikes and that’s the end of it! I mean what’s the point of having a healthy lunch when you are going to fall off the wagon before the day ends?

That’s why this salad is perfect and has detox in it’s name. Because it’s packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants and is a substantial meal because of all the veggies, quinoa and chickpeas. It will keep you feeling full till your evening snack.

Superfoods Green Detox Salad

Whenever I make this salad, I always make a little extra Quinoa because I have another favourite that is perfect for lunch the next day – these Beet and Goat Cheese Quinoa Patties. They are colourful, healthy and incredibly easy to make! Pair them with a light salad and you are already on your way to a healthier you!

    What a salad! Looks absolutely delicious and filling= I'm a red cabbage lover so it jumped right out to me in the salad. I usually eat at least one big salad a day- great idea to add quinoa and chick peas to make it your meal. Thanks for sharing it
