I know a lot of people generally consider eating any sort of salad to be healthy, but in reality a lot of salads out there are not. For instance, salads drenched in dressing practically ruin the entire purpose of trying to eat healthy by choosing a salad and romaine/ice berg lettuce has less benefits than spinach lettuce (Here is an article on benefits of spinach lettuce: http://www.cookingnook.com/health-benefits-of-spinach.html). So, we wanted to share this website with you that has a nice recipe for a healthy spinach salad. The salad takes a little longer to prepare than most. Usually when this is the case, I try and make a large amount and save some for multiple meals throughout the week.

Here is the site with a healthy spinach salad recipe: Healthy Spinach Salad Recipe

Enjoy!

This meal is a bit more complicated that the last one we posted. It is a recipe we found on the Food Network website…

Meal Includes:

• 8 ounces ricotta (preferably fresh), at room temperature
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
• 3 cloves garlic, chopped
• kosher salt
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 white onion, sliced into 1/2-inch-thick rings
• 2 (4-ounce) cans sliced green chile peppers, drained
• 2 bunches fresh spinach (about 1 pound), stemmed
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
• 8 to 12 corn tortillas
• Salsa verde, for serving

Benefits:

Only 315 calories per serving and 12 g of fat.

Fiber – 9g

Protein – 12g

How to Prepare:

Combine the ricotta, cilantro and 1 clove garlic in a medium bowl and season with salt.

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the onion and cook without stirring until lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir and continue cooking until the onion begins to soften, about 2 minutes. Add the chiles, spinach (in batches) and cumin and cook, stirring, until the spinach begins to wilt. Add the remaining 2 cloves garlin and cook until the spinach is completely wilted, about 3 more minutes. Season with salt; transfer to a bowl and keep warm.

Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or wrap in a damp towel and microwave 1 to 2 minutes. Divide the spinach mixture among the tortillas, top with the ricotta mixture and a spoonful of salsa verde and fold. Serve with more salsa.
