JENNIFER GARNER 'BIG' SALAD
5 steps
Prep:15minCook:35min
Jennifer Garner recently went on Women’s Health and described the big fat salad she has every day for lunch, so we had to give it a go!
When she mentioned a hearty veggie, I instantly thought of cauliflower, and because the oven was already on for the sweet potatoes decided to roast it.
Then she said put anything in there; it’s big, it’s hearty so I added some lentils because if you’ve been here for a minute, you know we won’t have a salad without a good source of plant protein in there and also added some fresh dill which really made the whole salad pop.
As Jennifer did not mention the dressing, I decided to make my absolute go-to dressing with balsamic vinegar and Dijon mustard, it goes with everything and is so easy to make.
So what do you think? Will you give this salad a go? For me it’s a big yes, I was in the moment I heard 'big fat salad'.
