Kale, Chickpea, Slaw Salad
2 cups of chopped kale
1/2 cup of chickpeas mixed with olive oil, oregano, parsley and black pepper
Slaw mix: julienned red pepper, yellow pepper, carrots and zucchini
1 avocado
3 tbsps of Hemp Hearts
Small handful of Pumpkin seeds
Top with apple cider vinegar, fresh lemon juice and a sprinkle of tumeric!
With this fun salad you have protein, carbohydrates, fiber and lots of other green veggie goodness!
The chickpeas have approximately 21g of carbs per 1/2 cup serving, and the avocado was pretty small so I would count it as 10g of carbs. I would give myself 2.5 units because there is also a lot of fiber in both and I usually give insulin depending on the food itself and the ration 10g = 1 unit.
The thing I like about this salad as well is that it's filling, it has lots of protein from the various sources, and it's still refreshing and good for you!
