Mixed Berry and Microgreens Salad with Honey Dijon Dressing

Today, we are going to turn our attention to one of the my favorite recipes. Mixed Berry and Microgreens Salad with Honey Dressing. I love this salad because the sweetness of the berries and honey mixed with the tartness of lemon and dijon mustard results in a mouthwatering flavor that is both refreshing and complex. It also comes packed with a plethora of health benefits.

The star ingredients of this salad, the mixed berries, and microgreens, are renowned for their anti-angiogenic properties. This essentially means that these ingredients can help inhibit the formation of new blood vessels, a process that cancer cells often exploit to facilitate their growth and spread. As vascular birthmarks like hemangiomas are considered tumors, these anti-angiogenic effects can provide health benefits to those of us with vascular birthmarks.
