Take a break from the same old, same old by swapping out lettuce for these three hearty combos for veggie alternatives.

Spiralized Vegetables | Beets, Carrots, Zucchini

  • Add a pop of color and punch of nutrients
  • Added bonus: spiralized veggies stay crunchy, even with dressing added ahead of time

Hearts of Palm Noodles | by Palmini or 365 Whole Foods

  • Just 30 calories and 6 grams net carbs per cup
  • Added boost of 250 mg potassium

Artichoke Hearts + Fresh Tomatoes

  • Marinated artichoke hearts topped with fresh tomatoes
  • Tomatoes are rich in antioxidants beta carotene and lycopene, and a cup of artichoke hearts packs in nearly 8 grams fiber, 25% of vitamin K and 50% of folate needs for the day
