🥗 Your salad isn’t unhealthy…
You’re just building it wrong.
Most “healthy” salads are loaded with:
❌ Sugary dressings
❌ Empty carbs
❌ Hidden calories
And that’s why they feel light… but don’t keep you full.
✅ Build a PERFECT BALANCED SALAD
1. Protein (keeps you full)
Grilled chicken / Paneer / Boiled eggs / Chickpeas
2. Fiber (for gut + slow digestion)
Lettuce, cucumber, carrots, cabbage
3. Healthy fats (for satiety)
Avocado / Olive oil / Nuts (not candied)
4. Crunch (smart swaps)
Roasted chana / Seeds instead of croutons
5. Dressing (keep it light)
👉 Olive oil + lemon + salt + pepper
