Sometimes life can feel full. Extra events, longer days, family schedules, work demands, and often a little less routine.
This Thai Chicken Salad is packed with ingredients that help support your body through it all. Vitamin C from lime and mango supports the adrenals and immune system, magnesium-rich almonds support calm energy, ginger brings digestive warmth and absorption, and green onion supports Liver Qi movement from a TCM perspective.
The 4 Mushroom Blend adds an extra layer of support with reishi for deep adrenal and stress response nourishment, shiitake for immune support, maitake for healthy blood sugar balance, and lion's mane for steady focus and mental agility.
Paired with protein from chicken and healthy fats from almond butter, this is a beautiful meal to help you feel grounded, energized, and clear.
