Nutrition in this Salad:
Kale, finely chopped, and other greens can be served cooked and raw! Beet greens, chard (including red Swiss and rainbow chard), collard greens, dandelion greens, mustard greens, turnip greens, and spinach are all considered to be cooking greens.
In the uncooked greens portion of this salad,
I include Microgreens, romaine lettuce with the arugula, and mint. I may add avocados when in season!
Microgreens are considered baby plants, falling somewhere between a sprout and baby green.
That said, they shouldn’t be confused with sprouts, which do not have leaves.
Onions, Garlic, and Leeks
These pungent and flavorful vegetables are all members of the allium family, which are rich in a type of antioxidant called quercetin. Researchers are investigating quercetin’s potential ability to relieve inflammation in most diseases.
Alliums also contain a compound called diallyl disulphine, which may reduce the enzymes that damage cartilage.
Fennel
Beets
Packed with essential nutrients, beetroots are a great source of fiber, folate (vitamin B9), manganese, potassium, iron, and vitamin C. Beetroots and beetroot juice have been associated with numerous health benefits, including improved blood flow, lower blood pressure, and increased exercise performance.
