1 teaspoon minced garlic

2 oz pineapple juice

2 ounces vegetable stock

2 ounces white wine vinegar

1 ounce avocado oil

6 cups of Romaine or Butter lettuce (really any lettuce you like will work)

2 cups of fresh spinach

1 cup mandarin oranges, peeled and sliced
1 cup sliced pineapple
1/2 cup cooked quinoa
1 can of black beans rinsed and drained
Toppings: coconut shavings, slices almonds, hemp seeds (optional)

Instructions

2.) To make the dressing, combine all the incredients in a mason jar or a jar with a lid and shake to emulsify the ingredients. You can also make this in a blender or bowl and whisk the ingredients together.

Notes

**If you want to meal prep this salad, we suggest you leave the pineapple and oranges and the dressing off until you are ready to eat it. This way the salad won’t get too soggy!
