Yes, Jamie Oliver is on to something with regards to healthy, nutritious and downright delicious food. Chopped salad is the way I got my family to eat salad. There's something about everything being all mixed up together that just, I don't know, makes it! Here's a list of stuff I've chopped up and thrown into a big bowl:
Organic romaine hearts
Organic packaged spring mix/other assorted lettuce blends
Organic baby spinach
Iceberg lettuce
Tomatoes
Classic coleslaw (shredded cabbage & carrots)
Shredded carrots
Zucchini
Summer squash
Fresh peas
Cucumbers
Bell peppers
Canned beets
Canned garbanzo beans
Raw cashews
Fresh mozzarella
Raisins
Dried cranberries
Walnuts
Mandarin oranges
Chopped apples
Strawberries
Chilled grilled chicken
My goodness, the list could go on. Can you see the possibilities here? My 11-year-old son requests this for dinner on a regular basis.
How much healthier would your family be if you started serving fresh ingredients like this?
