Ingredients

• 140 g (4.9 oz) of smoked salmon
  
  
• 10 g (0.3 oz) of MCT oil
• 50 g (1.7 oz) of olives, which is about one handful. Both black and green olives are fine.
• 15 g (0.5 oz) of Brazilian nuts
  
• 100 g (3.5 oz) of fresh spinach leaves
  
• A few drops of lemon juice for better taste
• A few pinches of sea salt or Himalayan salt

Instructions

1. Wash spinach leaves, dry them and place them into a salad bowl.
   PRACTICAL TIP:  If you buy spinach leaves (and other leafy green vegetables) at a supermarket, make sure to wash them properly. Make sure to read my guide on how to wash vegetables to remove pesticides from them.
2. Add MCT oil and mix it up with spinach leaves.
   PRACTICAL TIP: Feel free to use a different type of oil, such as, olive oil, avocado oil or flax seed oil. I recommend using MCT oil which will give you more energy, increase blood ketone levels and won’t be stored as fat.
3. Add olives and Brazil nuts.
   PRACTICAL TIP: You can soak Brazil nuts for a few hours before so that you get more nutrition from them. Feel free to use different types of nuts as well.
4. Add salmon and your salad is ready!
