This salad delivers all of the above plus it's a solid 10 in the flavor department. It has crunchiness and chewiness and just the right amount of sweet to balance out those dark greens. Complete with a creamy and delicious tahini macadamia nut dressing made with Dastony nut butters which are freshly stone ground in small batches. This recipe is fuss-free and easy to throw together!

Don't forget to nourish all parts of yourself this Thanksgiving and beyond – body, mind, and spirit.
