Creamy Micro Chopped Salad

Lots of DELICIOUS ingredients come together to create something VERY special here!

I used a bunch of fresh produce I had on hand that needed to be eaten – so feel free to substitute ingredients for whatever you have in your kitchen (or garden). You’ll likely create something that is surprisingly good! Often it’s the ingredients that we don’t typically think of adding that give it that touch of something special! So here’s a little nudge to get creative and try a unique salad combo today!

Do you like chopping veggies?

I’ve always found it to be very relaxing for me. Chopping veggies forces me to slow down, calm down, and be present. It’s incredibly soothing and the finished result always makes me feel a great sense of accomplishment because my family will be eating all those beautifully prepared fresh vegetables.
