I want to ask about salad recipes.
I have fibromyalgia, anxiety, and a few other medical conditions. I also have a lot of pain in my GI system, especially stomach pain after eating. All this has been true for many years.
Recently I decided to do a test (trial) diet in which I eliminate many of the common problem foods and eat all organic. I eliminated gluten, dairy, and soy. I also eliminated foods which seem to cause me irritation like meat. I am eating just rice and raw fruits and veggies right now.
It has been two weeks. I LOVE IT! Tremendous improvement in symptoms.
So regarding salads, I usually get organic veggies like red pepper, cucumber, tomatoes, romaine lettuce, maybe onion. I put a store-bought dressing with them.
I would like some easy salad ideas -- that is, choosing veggies, types of lettuce, and a dressing. I am still dealing with significant fatigue so I want it to be easy, but I am willing to make the salad dressing myself if it can be much better than store bought that way. All ingredients of the salad must be organic. Oils cannot be soy, and preferably I would use olive oil.
