Recipe: Hearts of Palm and Shrimp Salad

by

Published on

Hearts of palm, also known as the "millionaire's salad," has a taste similar to that of artichokes. Originally harvested by cutting down whole palm trees, they are now produced through sustainable cultivation and therefore readily available (and affordable). Buy them in glass jars labeled "cultivated."

  2. Does anybody get sleepy AFTER their breakfast? Today I ate 1/2 Avocado, 1/4 apple, some trail mix, probiotic yogurt.
    I am not overweight, don’t drink alcohol, don’t smoke ANYthing and exercise and work 7 days a week. Ergh. So frustrating.

    • Carole – Tried eating small amounts of protein in the AM? I had the same thing for years but usually after lunch. Also, how are your adrenals?

  3. Wow, what a lovely, simple, appealing salad…perfect for a warm day! Thanks Chris:)

  4. Honestly, maybe I’m just blessed with a fast metabolism, but I would have to eat 20 of these a day to feel half normal.

  5. That looks fantastic! It’s also AIP friendly. I’m going to add some grilled pineapple on the side.
