Power Packed Chopped Salad
(Serves 4)

6 cups (200 g) mixed leafy greens
1 medium cucumber, diced
2 medium tomatoes, diced
1 large avocado, diced
1 cup (185 g) cooked quinoa or brown rice
1 cup (170 g) cooked shelled edamame
1 cup (150 g) corn kernels, fresh or frozen and thawed
½ cup (50 g) dried cranberries
½ cup (100 g) goat cheese crumbles (optional)

Dressing:
¼ cup (60ml) olive oil
2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 Tbsp honey or maple syrup
Juice of 1 lemon
1 garlic clove, minced
Salt and pepper to taste

Using a cutting board and sharp knife, chop the greens, cucumber, tomatoes, and avocado into bite-sized pieces. Place in a large salad bowl. Set aside.

Make the dressing by combining all the ingredients in a small bowl and whisking them together. Taste and adjust the seasoning.

Add the quinoa, edamame, corn, cranberries, and goat cheese to the salad mixture and toss gently. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss until everything is well coated.

🥗 Eat and enjoy!

What’s the difference between “cheat meals” and “treat meals”?
-
They might SOUND similar, but there's a HUGE difference when it comes to your mindset…
-
And maybe even your long-term relationship with food! 😮
-
Let's break it down. Cheat meals:
-
✅ Labels foods as "good" or "bad"
✅ Can lead to guilt when you eat "bad" foods you normally avoid
✅ Might make you overeat because it's your only chance for "forbidden" foods
✅ Can get in the way of your results... and even worse, set you up for unhealthy eating patterns
-
What about treat meals?
-
✅ Let you enjoy yummy foods without breaking "rules"
✅ Help create a positive food relationship (no "good" or "bad" labels!)
✅ Are usually planned and enjoyed in moderation
✅ Can boost long-term success because you don't feel deprived
-
Changing those two little letters from "ch"eat to "tr"eat might seem tiny…
-
But sometimes all it takes is a mindset shift to get you on track for AMAZING results!

🤗 There’s a trap a lot of us fall into: we can go “all in” and spend so much energy on just one or two areas of our health/fitness…

… that there’s little room for anything else.

It could be:

💪Intense workouts
🥗Strict diets
🧠Latest "bio hacks"
🧘‍♀️Meditations/mindset

And as a result, we can end up neglecting OTHER parts of our health, like relationships, fun, and creativity.

But true health is all about BALANCE! It's not just physical – it's emotional, social, and mental too.
