Eating a “rainbow” of fruits and vegetables helps to ensure that you are getting the spectrum of nutrients and antioxidants that support vibrant health. Prep tips: If you’re not vegetarian, you might like to add shredded cooked chicken or pork; it’s also excellent with cooked lentils or toasted cashews. Keep a jar of the dressing on hand in the refrigerator for impromptu salads of just about anything.
