Green Goddess

Green Goddess

Goddess: "A female being of supernatural powers or attributes, believed in and worshiped by a people". 

I think all female beings are goddesses. As women, we must worship and love ourselves and believe in your own attributes and natural powers. When we practice self care everything else falls into place.
Green vegetables have super natural powers too by protecting us from disease and cancer. So while you worship at the temple of you, whip up this luscious green dressing and receive all the attributes of a nutritious green goddess salad.
