Description


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 3 c cooked Black Forbidden Rice (I used Lotus Foods)
  • 2 c baby spinach
  • 1 c sliced strawberries
  • 1 c blueberries
  • 1/2 c toasted pecans

Dressing

  • 3/4 c freshly squeezed blood orange juice (around 3-4 large oranges)
  • 1/2 tsp blood orange zest (optional, but it adds so much flavor)
  • 2 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 tsp dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1/23/4 c olive oil (adjust this to taste)


Instructions

  1. Wash and prep your berries and greens.
  2. Mix all of the dressing ingredients in a jar and shake, or whisk in a small bowl.
  3. Mix all salad ingredients together in a large bowl. Add dressing (start small here) and mix the salad well. 

Notes

  • top with additional blood oranges if you love them as much as I do.
  • This salad would be great with Feta added to the mix. I have a recipe for vegan feta cheese coming soon, it’s just not quite ready yet :).  
  • Prep Time: 15 minutes
