Sweet and Spicy Salad (Vegan, Grain Free)

This Sweet and Spicy Salad is my favorite salad to date because the sweet and spicy is such a delicious combination in a fresh and crunchy salad! The sweetness comes from the strawberries and red onions, and the spice comes from chili hummus and cilantro.

The creation of this salad was actually on accident because I was using up ingredients in the fridge, but it turned out to be such a wonderful accident! Here is my Chili Hummus recipe that I use as part of the salad dressing.

If you try this recipe, let me know! I would love to see your comments and ratings on this recipe. In addition, you can tag photos of your dishes for me to see on Instagram using #gwynnieclemons.

Best wishes and shalom, friends!

The serving sizes are basic estimates based upon the servings my husband and I use to reach fullness and satiety when eating this recipe. Please remember to honor your hunger and fullness by eating more when you are hungry and stopping when you are satisfied.
Please, only use doTERRA essential oils internally because they are the only essential oil company with Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade (CPTG) quality!
