For the Recipe:
1lb mushrooms (I used 1/3 each of the shiitake, white and crimini varities)
2 figs, cut into 8 equal sections
baby kale
shredded carrots
1/4 lb asparagus, sliced into three pieces on the diagonal
broccoli florets
purple cabbage
zucchini, cut into small thin strips or matchsticks
one large orange – cut into 4 pieces
Himalayan pink salt and pepper, to taste

Remove stems from mushrooms. Cut mushrooms into small slices/strips and place into a large bowl. Cut all salad items as noted above and add to bowl. Optional: I lightly squeezed one piece of the orange over the salad – the juice gave the salad a lot of pizazz! Toss and serve on plates.
