5. Make the vinaigrette: put olive oil, lemon juice, grated ginger, honey, and sea salt in a jar. Seal and shake well, or whisk in a small bowl.

Ingredients :

2 cups cauliflower, chopped
2 cups broccoli, chopped
1 cup red cabbage, chopped
1 cup carrots, chopped
1-1/2 cups fresh parsley, chopped
2 celery stalks, chopped
1/2 cup raw almonds, chopped
1/2 cup raw sunflower seeds
1/3 cup organic raisins
3 Tbsp olive oil
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, peeled and grated
2 tablespoons clover honey
1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Directions :

Chop the ingredients using a sharp knife or use a food processor to pulse them until finely chopped. In a large bowl, add all of the salad ingredients and toss them together. For the vinaigrette, place the olive oil, lemon juice, ginger, honey, and sea salt in a mason jar. Seal the lid and shake well, or mix the ingredients in a small bowl and whisk together. It’s best to refrigerate the salad for up to an hour before serving to allow flavors to blend. Serve in a large bowl or on individual plates, and enjoy as a main dish or side. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator, best eaten within two days.

how to serve Crunchy Detox Salad

Serve chilled or at cool room temperature. Use a large bowl for serving so guests can take as much as they want. The salad works well as a light lunch, a side with grilled fish or chicken, or on top of mixed greens for extra crunch.

Place leftover salad in an airtight container. Keep in the fridge and eat within two days. The salad stays crunchy best if you store the dressing separate and add it just before serving.
