Eat Well: Go-To Dinner Salad

Oh, hi. It's me again. (Whenever I attempt an Eat Well post I feel like I'm stealing my mom's car or something. Like, WOOO! I HAVE A FAKE ID LET'S HIT UP REVOLUCION!)

This is actually a follow up to my go-to lunch salad post and I figured, since this is the time of year where we have little time/many boxes of treats in the pantry, I'd post another super simple easy healthy quick delicious filling feel good salad recipe (recipe?) which is more or less what Hal and I eat for dinner every single night. A pile of greens covered with stuff.

Here is what you need to make such a thing:

- Bag of herb salad mix from Trader Joes (if you do not have a TJs, you can use any kind of greens but please add dill and spinach leaves to the mix if you can. The dill is VERY IMPORTANT because dill + brown lentils = the perfect complement.

- Pre-made lentils. (I also buy these at Trader Joes. Actually, Hal does. He does the household grocery shopping. They are a timesaver/lifesaver/dietary staple in our house.)

- Artichoke hearts and/or hearts of palm OR garbanzo beans + avocado OR goat cheese and cranberries (pictured above).
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil + Balsamic Vinegar

- Seasoning. If possible, this, because there is nothing better in all the land. (My mom has written about it before. It's avail at her Farmer's Market and online, here.)

(This one comes in second place.)

ED: Use as many greens as you can fit on the plate. Portion control does not apply when it comes to green leafy things. 

ED #2: Bo and Revi will eat this salad. Fable and Archer will not because they are "allergic to salad, gosh."

ED #3: xoxoxo.
