Fresh green chef salad is an important part of your Detox. Prep everything in advance, put in containers and you will have a salad bar in your fridge that’s ready when you are. It’s important to know that we not talking about iceberg lettuce, carrots and tomatoes with Ranch dressing.

The green salads you eat during your detox should be loaded with nutrients and a wide variety of fresh ingredients. Use your salad as an opportunity to incorporate many different vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and other micronutrients into one meal. Combine dark and light leafygreens; yellow, orange and red vegetables; nuts, seeds and avocadoes; and even fresh herbs. This creation will give you the full spectrum of vitamins and minerals along with healthy fats and proteins.
