Salads are a very important part of your daily diet. Everything but the kitchen sink can be added to a salad.
Try switching your salads around with a wide variety of fruits and vegetables. Salad vegetables should always be stored in a dry, cold place – never wet. Dry thoroughly before storing, otherwise water withdraws vitamins and minerals through osmosis.

Salad Dressing
Salad dressings should be made fresh whenever possible; avoid bottled or packaged with dry herbs.
Why?
Well, commercial salad dressings are typically filled with chemical preservatives, sugar, and chemical flavor enhancers. If you don’t have time to make your own dressing or simply want a change, choose dressings with the fewest ingredients possible.
Keep garlic, ground pepper, cold-pressed seed oil, and some balsamic vinegar on the shelf, and you will have one of the best salad dressings at your fingertips.
Remember that the fewer ingredients in anything prepackaged that you buy – the more natural the product will be, and the healthier for maintaining good health.
