This is a great, super-healthy and easy-to-do salad. It's ready in around 15 minutes and  with a lot of options as to mixing and matching. For instance, you can throw in any fruit or berry with this mix, blueberries and raspberries are a good choice, or you can also add other nuts such as cashews and roasted almonds. They will add a little crunch, omega-3 and more protein!
