Prep the salad ingredients: wash and chop the salad greens, tomatoes, and shallots.
Cook half quinoa and half red lentils together in the Instant Pot ahead of time.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked quinoa and lentils with the salad greens, chopped tomatoes, shallots, mini bell peppers, and broccoli sprouts.
Add avocado to the salad for skin elasticity benefits.
Incorporate ground flax seed meal and hemp seeds into the salad for added nutrients and texture.
Drizzle Starbot Caesar dressing over the salad and mix well to combine all ingredients.
Taste the salad and adjust ingredients as necessary, adding more vegetables if feeling hungry.
