🌿 Lamb’s Lettuce / Rocket / Mixed Greens
Leafy greens provide a base rich in chlorophyll, folate, and vitamin K, all vital for blood health and detoxification. Rocket (arugula) adds a peppery kick and supports digestion, while lamb’s lettuce offers a gentler, buttery texture along with a dose of iron and vitamin C.
🐟 Smoked Salmon
A nutrient bomb full of omega-3 fatty acids, high-quality protein, and B vitamins like B12 and niacin. Omega-3s support brain function, reduce inflammation, and contribute to glowing skin. Its naturally salty flavor also provides trace minerals like selenium.
🧀 Mozzarella
Soft and creamy, mozzarella delivers calcium, phosphorus, and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA)—a healthy fat known to aid fat metabolism and reduce inflammation. When made from full-fat milk, it also supplies beneficial saturated fats crucial for hormone production on a primal diet.
🍓 Strawberries
Low in sugar yet bursting with vitamin C, polyphenols, and antioxidants, strawberries brighten the dish and support collagen synthesis, immune health, and blood sugar regulation. They also provide fiber to support digestion without spiking carbs too high.
🌿 Basil
Beyond its amazing aroma, basil contains potent anti-inflammatory oils and is rich in vitamin K, magnesium, and antioxidants. It helps combat oxidative stress and adds a fresh, herbal contrast to the richer components of the salad.
🥄 Dressing: Honey or Keto Honey, Olive Oil, Lemon Juice, Honey Mustard
Honey or keto honey gives a touch of sweetness and contains trace antioxidants (keto-friendly versions keep it low-carb).
Olive oil is a monounsaturated fat loaded with oleocanthal, which acts as a natural anti-inflammatory compound.
Lemon juice adds brightness and supports digestion and liver function through its alkalizing and detoxifying properties.
Honey mustard, when made clean, brings a tangy kick while delivering trace minerals and polyphenols.
This salad is a functional yet gourmet dish that aligns beautifully with primal principles—no grains, no processed ingredients, and packed with real food synergy.
