EVERYDAY FARMERS’ MARKET GREENS + GRAINS SALAD

This is the basic formula I use for both my everyday lunchtime salad and a more simple salad that I prepare as a side dish. The greens are always inspired by what I find at the market, and I often mix and match varieties as well as the other add-ins suggested. If I am making this for myself for lunch, I might include a grain, a bean, a nut, and some sliced avocado, but if I am serving it as a brunch side dish I might include only the greens and a nut, lightly tossed in a dressing

Uh-oh! We're unable to calculate nutrition for this recipe because some ingredients aren't recognized.

Step 1

Put the salad greens, grains, beans, and nuts or seeds that you are using into a large serving bowl. Spoon a couple tablespoons of the dressing over the top and toss to combine.

Step 2

Continue to dress the salad until it is to your liking. Add any additional veggies or other additions on top, if you’re using, spoon a little more dressing over the veggies, and serve.
