The strawberries were so good and I had a bunch of fennel and leftover kale AND I really wanted to make something a little lighter for lunch, so I put together this salad. I’m discovering there are a lot of “best practices” when it comes to salad: (a) variety of textures; (b) sweet, savor, AND tart; (c) lots of colors; (d) not over-/under-dressing. Here, I wanted to make sure the dressing didn’t get too heavy, so that other components of the salad could really shine. So, I nixed the fat from olive oil or some other heavy fat and stuck with one of my favorite kitchen hacks of all time—hummus + mustard! You can find the list of ingredients below—full recipe and nutritional info will be on my recipe app, The Kollective (link in bio)!
.
Dressing: hummus, mustard, garlic, basil, brown rice syrup
Salad: kale, cucumber, fennel, pecans, strawberries, vegan cheese (Babybel)
Garnish: fresh fennel fronds, basil leaves

Wow, this hit me – fights make me so uncomfortable and scared, I become my 4yr old self, I love that you can fight without being scared.
I also want a wife or husband who cooks for me all the time????????
Imagine her doing the voice over in front of Anthony ????
I want that salad
No we don't fight ever and I couldn't live with someone who wants to fight all the time. I dated someone who fought all the time.
his piano playing is lovely!
Anthony is so talented on the piano. ????????♥️
i saw one of your videos ….your voice is therapy…i cant help but wonder how would a therapy session with you feel like??once you were talking about a friend who has hurt you…i cud totally connect, as a kid( which i still am) , i was really bad a t making friends, it became a topic of discussion for the teacher as to why i had none , and a reason to bully me….when i got my first set of friends , i was desperate , i didnt wanted them to leave , they were toxic and rude , and treated me like crap , onde day they stopped talking to me altogether , i was heartbroken, i would say sorry for a thousand times…until i cudnt ….as a teenager my insecurities are deep , i still think loving me must be a really hard task…love you btw from india
