Ingredients:
- 1 cup cooked barley
- 1 cup black bean, rinsed and patted dry
- 2 small carrots, sliced
- 1 apple (honeycrisp, preferably), chopped
- 1/2 lemon, juiced
- 1/2 cup freshly shredded coconut
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tbsp cinnamon powder
- 2 handfuls of salad (spring mix or spinach)
Directions:
- Add barley, beans, shredded coconut, sliced apples and carrots in a huge bowl. Lightly toss to combine.
- Sprinkle in lemon juice, coconut, salt & cinnamon powder. Lightly toss to combine.
- Serve salad on a bed of spring mix or spinach.
Optional – this salad is best served without dressing. But if you can’t resist the temptations, a yogurt dressing would pair very well 🙂
Off to gargle some warm water + salt. Awful time to have a bad sore throat. Have been chugging boat-load of H2O without any relief 🙁
