Another recipe for those that like to know the SECRET FOR MY SIZE AND WEIGHT... Belgian Endive Salad with Chia Seeds, the Antioxidant SuperFoods item that is good for Iron Boost and Good for Blood Sugar Level.
We both LOVE any type of salad...
Trader Joe's did sell these 2-colored Belgian Endive as a pack of 3.
My Dad as well as husband Pieter's Dad used to grow Belgian Endive during the winter season but at that time there only was one color, no red ones yet. They look a lot like Radicchio.
Important to remove the often bitter end part, with a pointed knife...
A very quick and easy dressing with Reduced Fat Mayonaise from Trader Joe's and I added some brown rice vinegar but you can use any type you like!
With Chia seeds being added you have to keep in mind that they work gelatinous. Best to make this dressing right before serving!
Sorry for the poor photos, made them real quick with my iPad (still not having a new camera at the time...)
But here you can see how I kind of hollowed out the often bitter end part of the Belgian Endive.
Cutting them first length wise... than slicing them up.
Those ends will brown easily so also here it's best to go ahead and add them to the dressing at once.
And voilà: a very healthy and tasty Belgian Endive Salad with Chia Seeds!
