This super healthy, hearty recipe is a take-off on the traditional curried chicken salad you’d find at a gourmet deli. The difference is that it’s vegan, dairy-free, cholesterol-free, and requires no cooking. So you’re saving fossil fuels too!
The nuts have plenty of protein, you’re getting a blast of vitamin C, and the bed of greens has phyto-nutrients, chlorophyll and calcium.
Be sure to buy organic ingredients, or at least try to buy from local farmers.
