Day 3 [Week One of Six Week Health]-Broccoli and apple salad
There are many options that we can choose to adopt a healthy diet to improve our health,to the expectation with the challenge of @healthsquared .
I know that broccoli is not the favorite vegetable of the whole world. And that many take it back, but I love it in a thousand ways. Here in the house, we easily eat like three heads a week ... I already know a little crazy. But according to Dr. Michael Greger in his new book, every day we should eat a vegetable from the broccoli family, such as kale, cauliflower, cabbage.
These vegetables have super powers and help us a thousand things. Broccoli is one of the ones that helps us the most and has the most benefits. This salad is with raw broccoli, but you can make it with broccoli cooked or roasted.
