I decided for the fall detox salad. And that’s why. I received an amazing bundle of fresh flavorous celery and was looking for the best option to make something special. So I typed “Celery” In the “search” tab and “Oh, she glows” presented a 4 page recipe list. I like to make a fresh salad, so I need to choose between 2 detox salads. The idea of the salad Angela borrowed from the salad bar of healthy foods store Whole Foods (This retail chain was recently bought by Amazon). In my home stock I found a carrot and an apple, but there was neither cauliflower nor brocolli available which are the key for the summer detox salad, so fall salad took over.
However, I had to make still a few substitutions.
