Chopped Pizza Salad

With spring around the corner, I'm starting to think of creative ways to get more Greens in my diet.

As we begin to see the leaves bud and the earth wake from its slumber, it's time to live by the rhythms of nature and embrace the "Wood" time that is starting to filter in. Eating greens in spring is essential to detoxify the body after a heavy winter, boost immunity with essential vitamins (A, C, K), and support heart/brain health. These nutrient-dense foods (spinach, kale, arugula) are at their freshest, offering high levels of chlorophyll and fibre, which help improve digestion and combat fatigue
