Packed with plant-based protein, juicy Limoneira mandarins and a homemade dressing, it&#8217;s delicious!<\/p>\n<p>We love making dressings at home instead of store-bought because this ensures we know exactly what ingredients are being used. Many store-bought dressings are filled with processed ingredients, artificial colors and flavors and added sugar. With just a few simple ingredients you probably already have in your fridge and pantry, you can make an amazing dressing to be used in your sesame salad all week long!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-103179\" src=\"https:\/\/healthygrocerygirl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/orangesesamesalad1-1800x1200.jpg\" alt=\"White bowl with sesame salad topped with mandarin oranges.\" width=\"1060\" height=\"707\" \/><br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/W6f7xAW9x-g\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">Health Benefits of Salad Ingredients<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">Purple Cabbage<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Purple cabbage may help with the prevention of heart disease due to its antioxidant called anthocyanins. Anthocyanin are what also give cabbage it\u2019s beautiful purple color. Cabbage also contains prebiotic fiber, which help feed your good gut bacteria! This is essential for overall gut health and may help with improving digestion.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">Carrots<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>This incredible root veggie is packed with vitamins and minerals such as beta-carotene, biotin, vitamin K, potassium and vitamin B6. Beta-carotene is converted to vitamin A in the body. This supports eye health, vision and reduces the risk of eye disease.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">Cilantro<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Cilantro is such an amazing herb to add into your routine! One of my favorite health benefits of cilantro is that it supports your liver, which is one of your natural detox organs! It also supports gut health, which is essential for digestion and immunity!<\/p>\n<p>See below to view or print this recipe!
