Virgin Diet Salad Recipe | CreativeCainCabin.comHappy Sunday and Happy Mother’s Day to everyone 🙂 I’m sharing a favorite salad creation of mine today. To back peddle a little… remember the post about me becoming allergic to pizza? Well after some extensive research I figured out I was having several food sensitivities because I am in the beginning stage of menopause. Lovely right? I had a long talk with my chiropractor and made an appointment with a bioidentical hormone replacement doctor all to learn it’s pretty normal and I just needed to eliminate several foods from my diet and I should be fine.

After a lot of surfing the web, I found the Virgin Diet, and it sounded exactly like what was happening to me so I downloaded the book to my ipad. Another thing I said I would never do, I love to hold an actual book, but I was desperate and didn’t want to drive 40 minutes in search of the book. I wanted to start reading right away, so I did the unthinkable I hit the download button.  

I have eliminated all the trigger foods from my diet for 3 weeks now and so far no itchies from food. And also I lost 10 pounds….it’s worth it just for that reason. So for those of you who have inquired about my pizza allergy, I have given it up completely and have no plans to return to eating dairy or gluten, both things that are in pizza. 

To get back to the post, I created this “Virgin Salad” and I’m addicted to it. Give it a try when you have a sweet and salty craving.

    Hi Dawn,
    That salad sounds so yummy. That is the one thing I am craving since my stomach surgery is a good salad. I cannot wait to try this. Glad you figured out some of the foods to avoid so you feel better. Happy Mom’s Day.

      Kris, I get tired of just lettuce salad so this is a new twist.

    I will have to look for the book.

    I try to stay away from bread, but I love cheese. It is hard enough to give up my very favorite – bread!

      Carol, I love cheese too but it’s not worth having side effects so I am staying away.

    I don’t eat meat but will try this the next time I get the fake stuff. Definetly like changing up the veggies I eat. Really curious about why you named it Virgin salad.
