I got this recipe from Celesta Ranisi a licensed midwife, who takes care of pregnant moms and their growing babies, in San Diego. Don’t just use this for high blood pressure while you’re pregnant. This is a great salad for flushing your pregnant body of any swelling (edema) or just a way to eat healthy whether your pregnant or not.
