Moroccan-Inspired Broccoli Salad

Before I went Paleo, pretty much the only way you could get me to eat broccoli was to drench it in ranch dressing or cheese. But “getting healthy” opened my eyes to a whole new world of vegetable dishes. And I do mean world. What’s kept me going on the autoimmune protocol for the past few years has been my passion for adapting ethnic dishes from all over the globe – or better yet, finding ones that don’t need to be adapted! – to keep things interesting. This particular broccoli salad, served raw and cold, is an adaptation of a Moroccan recipe using tomatoes, peppers, and cream. My version adds carrots and coconut and gets just a hint of heat from ginger.
Keep Your Health on Track
Whether you’re starting the autoimmune protocol, a new medication, an exercise routine or trying to get to the bottom of your headaches or indigestion, cataloging your activities and symptoms is a great way to gauge your progress. The Ultimate Health Journal can help you stay on track with diet, fitness, and other lifestyle changes you have begun or been prescribed, notice patterns in your health and lifestyle so you can enact positive changes, and provide a valuable tool for you, your family, and your healthcare team. I would never have noticed that cinnamon makes me sneeze or dairy gives me hiccups without keeping a written record during my elimination diet, which helped me see the patterns that solved my problems!
