How to Make the Salad

Begin by gathering all your ingredients for easy access. Start with the celery: wash and roughly chop about 4-5 stalks, ensuring you have around 2 cups.

In a medium-sized bowl, combine the chopped celery with 1/4 cup of raisins. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. In a separate small bowl, mix 1/4 cup of Greek yogurt with 1 tablespoon of light mayonnaise, and add a drop each of parsley and thyme oil.

Pour this dressing over the celery and raisins, stirring well to coat all pieces evenly. Serve immediately or chill for 30 minutes for enhanced flavor.

Nutritional Benefits

This salad is packed with nutrients that can be particularly beneficial for those managing autoimmune disorders. Celery is rich in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds, which can help reduce inflammation in the body. Raisins provide a natural sweetness and are a good source of iron and potassium, essential for maintaining energy levels and heart health.

The Greek yogurt and light mayonnaise dressing adds a creamy texture while offering probiotics and healthy fats, supporting gut health and reducing inflammation. The addition of parsley and thyme oils not only enhances flavor but also provides additional anti-inflammatory and immune-boosting properties. Together, these ingredients create a nutritious dish that supports overall well-being.

Serving Suggestions

Ways to Enjoy Your Salad
