This Super-Foods Salad with a Lemon Honey-Mustard and Chia Seeds Dressing is nutritious and healthy! It is also a Costco copy-cat.
Costco has a packaged Super-Foods Salad with a Lemon Honey-Mustard and Chia Seeds Dressing salad kit in their produce section that I often buy. It is filled with a wonderful and healthy mix of kale, radicchio, brussels sprouts, cabbage and broccoli. The package also has a small package of cranberries and pumpkin seeds and some packages of prepared salad dressing.
I love the Costco salad mix but, I confess, I do not like the salad dressing and it always goes in the garbage. I have concocted my own salad dressing which I pour on whenever I buy their salad mix.
Today, I decided I would also make my own salad from scratch. I will admit though that it is much more convenient to purchase the salad kit even if the dressing does get tossed.
