Which of these do you think adds the most calories to your salad:
Dried cranberries, feta cheese, or sunflower seeds? Would you believe it’s the cranberries?
That’s because they have added sugar! The better salad toppers are the sunflower seeds or feta cheese. Both have only 100 calories – plus feta cheese has antibacterial compounds and blood pressure-lowering chemicals. And sunflower seeds are loaded with magnesium, which plays a key role in boosting our immune system, regulating our blood pressure, and keeping our bones strong.
