Today I'm bringing you a nutritious salad that is high in fiber, Vitamin C, and many other key nutrients.

Plus... It boosts energy and your immune system! 🙂

Arugula is a peppery, distinctive-tasting green that is high in calcium, folate, and Vitamins A and C. This delicious green is a nutrient-dense food that is low in sugar, calories, carbohydrates, and fat.

Step 1:

Dice all the fruit. Rinse the arugula. Finely chop the shadow beni. Juice the lime.

Step 2:

Put all ingredients into a bowl and toss well. Enjoy this salad fresh!

Arugula is often used for it's health benefits as much as its taste. Those include...

• Calcium, which helps bone health, tooth health, muscle function, and nerve function.
• Potassium, a mineral that’s vital for heart and nerve function.
• Folate, a B vitamin. It helps support the production of DNA and other genetic material. It’s particularly important for women who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant.
• Vitamin C, a powerful antioxidant that helps support the immune system.
• Vitamin A is a powerful antioxidant, which supports immune function, cell growth, night vision, and overall eye health. It also works to help maintain kidney, lung, and heart function.

Many health benefits are associated with eating pineapple - good digestion, immunity-boosting, and speedy recovery from surgery, just to name a few. Studies have shown that it suppresses the growth of multiple types of cancer including skin, breast, bile duct, gastric system, and colon.

Mango is good for a variety of ailments such as diabetes and cancer and can help maintain healthy bones and a youthful glow.

I enjoy it for both the taste and the health benefits. 🙂

Another great recipe will come next week! So keep an eye on your inbox next Thursday.

Stay safe and enjoy your journey.
