For this week in the Solo Meal and since the heat is reaching its peak, I will be sharing my favorite salad recipe for this summer, my Power salad. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Growing up salad was always a secondary meal, I guess it is in the culture. Don’t get me wrong it was always there but only to complement a dish. <\/strong>Tabbouleh<\/strong><\/a> was always there next to kibbeh, <\/strong>Fattoush<\/strong><\/a> was also always there\u0648 but it is that salad that goes with so many dishes. But to have these as lunch itself was abnormal. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I believe it was not till recently that I actually got over that and started having salad as a meal. And with all the heat what is better than some greens, vegetables and your favorite dressing. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The beauty of salads..<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

There are so many besides it being healthy. I think the main reason I am obsessed with salads now, is because with salads the sky is the limit. From the leaves, to vegetables and then dressings. I literally can add whatever I feel like and BOM you have your favorite salad ready. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the past week, I have been packing my lunch with me and most of these days I ended up doing this one, I add all my favorite ingredients in it. And here I have to confess that even though this section is for meals that you enjoy solely by yourself, but I have been sharing some of it with some colleagues, I guess that is the part of me that is hard to change. However, I only share it with the ones I like<\/strong> \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are your favorite ingredients in a salad? <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

So, in order to make this power salad, you will need Kale, baby spinach, rocket, avocado, cherry tomato, blueberries, walnuts, eggs, and blue cheese. A combination of all these mouthwatering ingredients and would not only be a delicious meal, but really gives me the energy to run the whole day as well. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
