Happy Wednesday Love Bugs! We’re half way through the week!
I wanted to share this Summertime Fab Four Salad with you guys today because it is absolutely to die for! It is also super high in protein, high in fat (the good kind), high in fiber and super low in carbs!
As I have mentioned before, I am really on this whole FAB FOUR kick. I shared this Fab Four Smoothie with you all last week. A quick recap on what the Fab Four stands four: Protein, Fat, Fiber, Greens. Basically, I have been having three large meals a day and filling each of them with the Fab Four. Then I’ve staying away from carbs and lowering my fruit (bc sugar) intake.
By filling my meals with the Fab Four concept, I have been able to feel fuller longer and have been able to cut back on my sugar and daily cravings.
This salad as been my favorite recently though for lunch! It’s so refreshing and tastes so light, when in reality I am getting A TON of nutrients. It sustains me until dinner without causing me to mindless binge when I get home from work because, yo girl does that.
To make this recipe simple to put together in the mornings, on Sunday I pretty much cut everything up (like the avocado and lemons) and I buy the pre-cubed watermelon & grilled chicken from Whole Foods (because #lazy). That way in the morning or night before, all I have to do is throw it all in a container and it’s good to-go.
Also, because the dressing is only technically olive oil and lemon juice, I do not have to worry about my salad getting wilted throughout the day. Heavy – sugar filed dressings tend to make your lettuce soggy but the olive oil just lightly coats it perfectly!
Do you guys enjoy me adding in more recipes into my weekly posts?
