The Body Miracle Salad Recipe – Weight loss foods

Do you sometimes feel “blah” and low on energy? Having a hard time getting those excess pounds to budge? Need a body “miracle”? Well, I would like to share with you one of my best weight loss secrets. It is my ultimate 7 ingredient salad recipe.

You mix and match just seven ingredients to get 7 different salads. Eat one every day as one of your vegetable servings. The salads are full of the ‘B’ and ‘C’ vitamins your body needs not only to lose weight but also to make energy.

The reason a lot of women are low on energy is because the foods they eat regularly are too high in salt, fat, and sugar (energy drainers) and too low on foods rich in ‘B’ and ‘C’ vitamins, and minerals zinc and iron (energy makers). Your body can’t extract the energy from your food efficiently without these nutrients and the best way to get them is to eat them.

And if you have a high stress lifestyle, a good diet is essential because stress depletes these vitamins and minerals faster than just about anything else!

Okay, enough of the technical talk. Here is the recipe:

Ingredients

* 1 head of red cabbage
* 2 bags of mixed greens
* 3 red onions
* 4 cucumbers
* 5 carrots
* 6 plum tomatoes
* Low fat vinaigrette dressing

Salad #1: Marinated greens

2 cups of mixed greens marinated with ¼ cup of vinaigrette

Salad #2: Cucumber, tomato, and onion

Combine 1 peeled sliced cucumber, 1 plum tomato, and ½ sliced red onion with ¼ cup of vinaigrette

Salad #3: Mixed greens and tomato

Combine 1 cup of mixed greens and 1 plum tomato with ¼ cup of vinaigrette

Salad #4: Marinated tomatoes

Salad #5: Marinated cucumbers and onion

Combine 1 peeled sliced cucumber and ½ sliced red onion with ¼ cup of vinaigrette

Salad #6: Coleslaw

    I was reading about your 7 salads and wanted to know if they are just that a salad with a meal or if the salad is the meal and can I sub the cucumbers for something els

    Hi Wayne, the salad can be with a meal. As for substitutions – that is fine as long as the food you want to substitute is not a starchy one (potatoes, corn, pasta, bread products).
