I had this so called 'Freedom' salad at a pub over the weekend, and while everyone else had burgers or fried foods, this salad was delightfully satisfying and left me feeling ready for an action-packed afternoon without feeling weighed down. Try to mix it up for yourself!! (this will make enough for 2-3 people)
1 cup Mixed greens
1/4 cup cooked green (French) lentils
1/4 cup Israeli couscous (that is the larger sized couscous - could substitute quinoa if you prefer)
1/4 cup carrots
1/4 cup chick peas
1/4 cup bell peppers
1/4 cup red onion
1/4 cup edamame
2 tablespoons raw pumpkin seeds (can be purchased at a store like Trader Joes/Whole Foods/Dave's Market)
2 tablespoons pomegranate seeds
fresh chopped mint leaves (5-6 leaves otherwise flavor is to strong)
balsamic dressing
Enjoy!!
