Super Healthy Greens with seeds-mix Salad
Here is a nice and easy way to spice up an otherwise ordinary greens salad to be nutrient and taste-packed. You will be using some eclectic ingredients such as red palm oil, lavender and seven seed mix- known for their amazing health benefits. In case you were not aware, lavender is one of the ingredients in Herbes De Provence.
And of course, everyone by now is very aware of the fantastic health benefits of red palm oil. I suppose Dr. Oz. has made it very famous thru his shows and helped to bring it's benefits to light. It seems like somewhere before his show, this 'golden oil' (though it is actually red and not yellow) was only known to a few from these ancient cultures and it's amazing benefits were hidden in the dusty history books of ancient Egyptian and African civilizations!
So now to making our salad: take a large generous serving of your favorite greens in a large salad mixing bowl. I prefer to use organic mix herb-greens. Add a few pickled peppers for their zing and heat! If you don't care much for hot food- you can skip them! Next, sprinkle lots of dried parsley and a little dried lavender. Keep one thing in mind about lavender. It can nicely calm you to the point of making you drowsy. So, if you are eating it as a dinner salad after a tiring day at work, then great! Bon Nuit! :-) If not, be very careful- particularly if you intend to drive or operate any machinery etc, i.e. tasks that need your optimal concentration and full alert efficiency.
After lavender, next add a little of freshly ground black pepper and a seven seed mix. You can buy them pre-mixed in a store (tends to be flavored with garlic and onions) or make your own seed-mix version- sesame seeds (white and black varieties), caraway seeds, coriander seeds, fennel seeds, flax seeds and poppy seeds.
That's it! Mix well and serve with chunky slices of marbled cheddar cheese and a glass of full bodied red wine, maybe a red from Bordeaux? Now you can relax to this fragrant salad, let your day's cares dissipate away and get ready for a nice night's sleep. Good Night!
