Chop salads aren’t really a new thing. They’ve been a trend for at least five years now, but I love them (and I don’t give two shakes about food fads anyway, I do what I like by golly… you know like become an AIP early adopter!), ’cause you get a little of everything in one bite!

The juice adds lots of nutrients, flavor, and that gorgeous color, but without lending ...
