    Rosemary Infused Grapefruit & Kale Salad

    Dec 12, 2014 • Festive/Holidays, Follicular Phase, Menstrual Phase, Salads, Sides

    Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

    Today’s post is very special!

    Welcome to the Virtual Vegan Potluck 🙂 this is an online potluck partayyy that brings together 85 bloggers, cookbook authors, recipe developers and home chef’s; giving us an opportunity to share our best plant-based appetizers, beverages, breads, sides, salads, main courses, soups/stews, and desserts with the online community. How fun! I’m so excited to be apart of this.

    Rosemary Infused Grapefruit and Kale "Restaurant" Salad -A refreshing citrus plant based vegan salad infused with fresh rosemary and accompanied by juicy grapefruit, softened kale, hemp hearts, sunflower seeds and red cabbage. The rosemary citrus dressing pairs perfectly with this luxurious yet simple anytime salad.

    I chose to share the most refreshing and delicious salad I’ve ever created. A Rosemary Infused Grapefruit & Kale Salad. This can and should be enjoyed throughout any season, even winter. A good salad with all the right components can turn your day around. Or is that just me?! It needs to have texture, be crunchy, FULL of flavor, satiating, satisfying, super fresh and be accompanied by a perfectly paired dressing. 

    Be prepared for mouth watering amazingness. If I were to open a restaurant one day (not that I’m planning to ha), this salad would be the first thing on the menu. No joke. It’s fancy and surprisingly luxurious but all of us can easily make this. Promise. Plus, of course it’s completely healthy and plant based.

The rosemary citrus dressing pairs perfectly with this luxurious yet simple anytime salad.

    For this “restaurant style” salad, we are combining juicy red grapefruit paired with aromatic rosemary, softened lacinto kale, red cabbage, hemp hearts, and sunflower seeds for this citrus-infused salad, plus a rosemary citrus vinaigrette. Rosemary has to be my favorite fresh herb – it has the most delicious yet calming smell and when paired with the right ingredients, it can transform any dish into a heavenly one!

      This is ludicrously good looking, both in taste and in color. (I especially love the pop of purple from the cabbage). Please remind me to put grapefruit in my next kale salad, they sound perfect together! Happy VVP from a fellow Shannon 🙂

    Did your hair stop growing? Mine was stuck at the Did your hair stop growing?

Mine was stuck at the same length too for a while. But now I know your scalp is an extension of your skin and needs to be nourished and taken care of in order for healthy hair growth. The scalp ages 6x faster than the skin on your face 🤯 it needs love and care, too. Especially if you want length and strength.

My hair oil is unique and made of different botanicals, antioxidants, omegas and nutrients your scalp is craving. If your hair is struggling but you eat healthy, you may want to consider a hair oil to fill in the gaps. I’ve noticed new thickness and growth from it being nourished and fed nutrients from within. The SHINE is the most surprising part!!! It’s honestly jaw-dropping. It keeps getting better because it’s a LIQUID VITAMIN for all hair types.
 
Figuring out the right custom plan for you is key. I want to help customize a plan for you because everyone should experience these results.

And definitely my dream come true to be home with her all day. Never missing her much needed cuddle moments. I need her just as much as she needs me. Nothing else matters, really. I don’t need to be a girl boss or CEO of a company that separates us all day. I’m a mommy first and I sell shampoo, second. It’s actually the best of both worlds because I get to raise her and also have an income of my own.

If you’ve been yearning for something like this, there’s no better time. The holidays are coming!!!

There will always be some new trend or way to make money online. But are they sustainable? Or just a way to make a quick buck? One thing we all have in common is we all want to build a long-term sustainable business to make an income from home! We all sell shampoo, we all want different things for our families and we all took a leap of faith in starting our beauty businesses. And we all started somewhere. Instead of chasing the newest ways to make money, it’s so much more authentic to share something you love and use daily 👄🧴🫧🧖‍♀️

No daycare or nanny, it’s all from my phone. Now you do have to put in time and work for it to work, but it’s such a blessing. I’m so grateful every single day.
