I made this yesterday twice-once for me and once for my oldest who came home from working out starving. And then I made it again today. It is SO SO good. I adapted it from this recipe-the dressing calls for sugar and that is obviously not Whole30 approved so I put 1 TBS OJ in it's place. I also used a fresh Clementine instead of canned and used ground ginger instead of fresh. It is delicious and so filling. It says it makes four servings-well I ate the whole thing myself and maybe used a little less Romaine.
Whole60 ends today, Whole90 starts tomorrow! I've decided to try some new things every week so I don't get bored. This salad is one of them, and I have a few more that look great.
Happy March!

That looks delicious! Way to go on whole60! We did it last year and a few of our kids have done it as well. Isn't it weird how the food we eat affects us? Scary!
ReplyDeleteI also wanted to thank you of the book recommendation "A Spoonful of Sugar". I LOVED it!
Thank you for this recipe suggestion and for your detailed Whole30 post. I love your approach so much. I completed the Whole30 last summer and am starting a new round of Whole30 this month to clean up some of the bad habits that have slipped in since my first go. I am going to incorporate many of your tips this time around. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on 60! You are amazing. The salad looks fantastic. I do think variety is key! Last week I tried a chicken enchilada casserole over cauliflower rice. Very good! Since I am post Whole30 I added beans in (for the first time in 6+ months) and didn't really enjoy them - or shall I say my stomach didn't! Yesterday I made a roasting chicken in the slow cooker. It is amazingly tender and I save the droppings as chicken broth. Leftovers were used to make a chicken salad with walnuts and celery and homemade mayo. Yum!
ReplyDeleteI have been wanting to do whole30 but how do you live without dairy? i cannot fathom black coffee. You mud think it is worth it since you have been doing it for so little long. Maybe I just need to give up coffee. I actually think that would be easier.
ReplyDeleteHi Andrea! Sorry it took so long to answer-forget about this post! I don't drink coffee and never have-I don't know how I avoided it but just never really tried it and figured I didn't need to start another food habit (maybe I should have and dropped the cookie, candy, icecream habits?). You can buy cans of coconut milk-I use it to make ranch dressing etc. You have to shake it up REALLY good before opening but it is super creamy and thick. I little would go a long way! I know whole30 has rules about what you can add to coffee so I'd check there first, but I coconut milk is allowed!
DeleteAndrea, (sorry to butt in on your question!) I use coconut cream whenever I do a whole30, and although it took a little while to get used to, I now use it in my coffee almost all the time! With four little ones, I need my shot of energy in the morning! :)
ReplyDeleteI don't think i have heard on that. Thanks for chiming in. I tried almond milk, my daughter drinks it, but I couldn't do it. Someone recommended coconut oil but that was weird how it separates. It is something I think I need to learn to cut. When I really looked at the calories, I was consuming 80 per cup! I have 3 cups a day!
DeleteWhat a great salad, thank you for sharing, Sarah. Some salmon will be good in here too instead of the chicken, I imagine.
