Put Together Your Salad
- Chop your veggies and add them to a bowl. Then make your salad dressing sauce. (Photos 1 & 2)
- Pour your dressing over your salad and toss. (Photos 3 & 4)
Substitution, Cook, & Storage Tips
- I used frozen corn for convenience but if you prefer you can use fresh corn as well. This would also be delicious with this Grilled Corn recipe.
- You can swap tomatoes for red peppers or even add them as an addition.
- This salad will keep in the fridge for 3 - 4 days. It is NOT freezer friendly.
How Does This Recipe Help With Vegan Weight Gain?
Avocados to the rescue! Avocados are full of healthy fats and are calorie-dense. One medium avocado has 300 calories.
I recommend adding them to your salads as much as possible to bulk up your calories. This salad can be eaten on regular bases. It's great for lunches.
How Does This Recipe Help With Vegan Weight Loss?
You can make this recipe apart of your vegan weight loss plan by:
- Remove the avocados to lower calories
- Omit the oil in your salad dressing
