Ok, just kidding! A salad every day of the week would be kind of ridic. Like we said, this year we’re all about making small, yet gratifying resolutions {that we can actually cross off our list!}, rather than attempting a big, lifestyle overhaul. Those changes only end up lasting for 2 weeks, 3 weeks, MAX, and then you’re right back where you started: in 2014. Instead of jumping head first into the latest diet craze, binging on kale and chia seeds, or excitedly buying an, errr, adventurous load of non-preservative groceries that are bound to rot tomorrow {because, oops, your resolution to cook more isn’t happening either!}, we say, how ’bout you just try this salad? Who wouldn’t want to try it?! It’s absolutely gorgeous!

There is something refreshingly wonderful about salads. I yearned for them daily when I lived in Kenya and could eat one everyday.
Coming from a girl who’s stuck with iceberg lettuce in a dorm dining hall, this probably doesn’t mean much, but wow! A seriously stunning looking salad.
This salad looks delicious!! Can’t wait to try it!
Looks delicious and almost too pretty to eat!
