Introduction
If you've read Joel Fuhrman's book "Eat To Live" you'll know what to do with this salad. Find a very large bowl and pile on your greens! (His lifestyle plan is High Nutrient Density so you try to get 1 lb of fresh raw greens and 1 lb of cooked and raw veggies everyday.)

Ingredients
-
1.75 cup (1 can) Beans, pinto, black, or kidney (any beans you like, drained)
1 cup Red Ripe Tomatoes, chopped or sliced
1 cup, Carrots, raw, chopped
0.5 cup, Green Peppers (bell peppers), chopped
1 or 2 Green Onions, chopped
1 large stalk of Broccoli, steamed
4 cups, Romaine Lettuce (salad), shredded (I don't normally measure the lettuce so it may actually be more like 6 cups of lettuce?)
Dressing:
1/2 Avocado, California (Haas), without skin and seeds
Pepper, red or cayenne, .25 tsp (or salsa)
Lime Juice, (I usually use 2 key limes or 1/2 large lime)
1/2 teaspoon Cumin
1/4 cup Pickled Jalapeno Peppers, chopped (optional)
1 clove Garlic, crushed, or finely chopped (you can also use garlic powder)
Fresh Cilantro, chopped
Water
Directions
Steam the Broccoli. I like to use left over steamed veggies for this.
Fill your bowl with Romaine Lettuce, Baby Spinach or a mixture of Spring Greens. Pile on the rest of the salad ingredients.
For the dressing: Mash the avocado in a small bowl. Mix in the rest of the ingredients and add water to thin. Pour over the salad.
Variations: I sometimes use Cubed Tofu or a Boca Burger for this salad.
