Omega 3 Rich Salad
6 large lettuce leaves (or 12 medium)
3 cucumbers
6 tomatoes
1 capsicum
Dressing:
2 teaspoons lemon juice
Salt to taste
3 Tablespoons Flaxseed oil (I recommend Melrose as it isn't bitter)
Optional:
Beetroot
Carrot
Method:
Cut up all ingredients and place in bowl. Add the dressings and mix together. If using beetroot, mix first then add beetroot. After adding beetroot mix as little as possible. Eat straight away, Enjoy. Note: If you want to eat the salad a bit later, add the dressing ingredients just before you serve it.
These days, people are getting plenty of Omega 6 but not enough Omega 3, so I made this recipe so that you would know a healthy recipe that you could use to implement more Omega 3 into your diet. Happy Cooking!
