Chopped Veggie Dill and Sardine Salad

Alright, guys! Once again, I am giving a shout out to sardines! I know that every time I write a post with a sardine recipe, I go on and on about how fantastic these tiny guys are, but I only do this because it’s true!!!

Some of these benefits include the following.

  • Reduces inflammation
  • Helps relieve depression and anxiety
  • Helps control blood sugar
  • Prevents blood clots
  • Prevents heart disease
  • Promotes healthy brain function

And that’s only 6 – there’s many many more! On top of that, this salad contains plenty of dill, which is one of my very favorite herbs with good reason – it is packed with health and medicinal properties!

Clearly, this salad is good for you, but to top all of that off, it is SO yummy!  Loaded with veggies, sardines, and a healthy dill dressing, the nutrition in this thing is out of this world and the flavor is right there with it!  Best part?  It’s a salad, so it’s beyond simple to make!
