SUNFLOWER & WILD RICE SALAD

 

This salad is full of flavor as well as fiber, antioxidants, vitamins and protein!  To make it a meal, toss in 6 ounces of (grilled or baked) diced boneless, skinless chicken breast.

 

Dressing:

1/3 cup apple cider vinegar

1/3 cup pure maple syrup

2 ½  tablespoons prepared spicy brown mustard

3 tablespoons sunflower oil

a pinch of sea salt  to taste

 

Salad:

1 cup fresh, shredded red cabbage

1 cup fresh, shredded carrots

1 cup fresh, shredded apples (such as Pippin or Granny Smith)

½ cup of fresh green grapes, halved

¾ cup cooked and cooled wild rice

¾ cup Flanigan Farms Sunflower Seeds, toasted

 

Wisk all ingredients for the dressing together in a small bowl.  Set aside.

 

Shred cabbage, carrots and apples last and toss this mixture with 3 tablespoons of the dressing (the acid in the dressing will keep the apples from browning).

Toss shredded mixture with the rest of the salad ingredients and add additional dressing to taste.

Serve right away.  Enjoy!
