CAPRESE SALAD
TESTIMONY OF THE DAY
A great supplement testimony!:“I just wanted to give you a quick update. I am on my fourth week of supplements and feel like someone flipped a switch inside me this week! I am getting 6-7 
uninterrupted hours of sleep a night (which hasn’t happened in years), my gut is pain free and not bloated (again, it’s been years – at least 20) and it feels like a cloud has lifted – I feel happy and upbeat, not exhausted, irritated, anxious and stressed every waking moment.
I have to admit that I was doubtful; I figured I was just wasting money. It has really given me hope that I can be healthy after all these years. I’m not seeing much weight loss but it’s clear that lots of healing is going on in my body.
I am so grateful to you for sharing your knowledge and advice!” – Christine

Very simple and very beautiful, Maria. I’m growing my own organic basil plants right now and I wish they would grow faster because I eat them so fast!
Hi Maria!
What are the serving/nutritional facts for this delicious recipe?
This one also works great on skewers for easy picnic or party!
I used to love this salad, but the sodium content can be very high! Maria, do you have any suggestions for low sodium meals as my doctor is clamping down on my sodium. I used to keep your lasagnas – 2 types but I can’t anymore as they are out the roof in sodium: what with the cheese and the chicken noodles, and the Italian sausages etc. I had to get myself having more and more shirataki noodles (miracle) to cut back on the sodium due to my Blood pressure. I also had to make my own seasoned seasoning without salt and. It’s not easy to have 1 tsp of sea salt over the day, but I am doing it! I exercise and train for race walking 1/2 marathons to no end…it’s the sodium that’s the killer! I also had to make my own soya sauce and hot chili sauce, and forget about Fish sauce!!!….as most of your recipes that are hearty have oodles of salt from the above ingredients.
Oh I forgot the Italian sausages; i was buying from the butcher for the lasagna…..way too much salt. The shrimp and scallops (i have to boil them first and rinse them) – salt!!!…..Subsequently I can pretty much depend on my raw meats and chicken and fish-absolutely NO processed food (Maybe swiss cheese!)…..a lot of work!!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this recipe. I also drizzle a little balsamic vinegar over this too.
Awesome!
But balsamic has a lot of sugar:(
Try it with red wine vinegar too!
