Turkey & Goat Cheese Salad
About
A tasty, crisp salad full of greens and protein. I used garlic flavoured goat cheddar cheese. If you are following a Paleo diet and don’t eat dairy products, you can omit the cheese and add more turkey or another vegetable. If you are following a Keto diet consider swapping the carrot with a different, less carb heavy vegetable.
