Ingredients

Salad Ingredients:

2 cups mixed greens
1 cup shredded carrots
1/2 cup blueberries
1/4 of a cucumber , sliced
8 cherry tomatoes ,sliced in half
4 radishes , sliced

Turmeric Dijon vinaigrette ingredients:

2 tsp dijon mustard
3 Tbs olive oil
2 Tbs tarragon vinegar
1/8 tsp salt
1/8 tsp ground black pepper
1/8 tsp ground turmeric
1/4 tsp herbes de provence

Egg Salad Ingredients:

6 hard boiled eggs
2 Tbs Paleo mayonnaise (you can make your own, or buy some- Primal Kitchens makes a good one)
1 Tbs of the Turmeric Dijon vinaigrette made in this recipe
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Put the eggs in boiling water and cook for 12 minutes. Turn the stove heat off and let the eggs sit in the hot water for 10 minutes. (You can use any technique of your choice to make the hard boiled eggs, this was just how I did it).
While the eggs are cooling, make the Turmeric Dijon vinaigrette. Put 2 tsp Dijon, 3 Tbs olive oil, 2 Tbs tarragon vinegar, 1/8 tsp salt, 1/8 tsp pepper, 1/8 tsp turmeric, and ¼ tsp herbes de provence into a bowl and mix until the dressing thickens. Set the dressing aside.
Prepare the salad plates. You can either mix together all of the veggies here or separate them out like I did in my photos. Put 1 cup of mixed greens, 1/2 cup of shredded carrots, and 1/4 cup of blueberries on each plate. Then put half of the sliced cucumbers, tomatoes and radishes on each plate.
Make the egg salad. Peel the shells off of the hard boiled eggs and place the eggs into a bowl. Mash the hard boiled eggs until all the eggs are in little pieces. Add 2 Tbs of paleo mayonnaise ( homemade or store bought) and 1 Tbs of the Turmeric Dijon vinaigrette made earlier in this recipe. Mix well. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Put half of the egg salad on one of the salad plates and the other half on the other. Sprinkle the remaining Turmeric Dijon vinaigrette on each plate. Enjoy
