Description

This Crunchy Detox Salad is a nutrient-packed, refreshing salad loaded with fresh vegetables, nuts, and seeds, all tossed in a zesty lemon-ginger vinaigrette. Perfect for meal prep or as a light side dish, this salad is both detoxifying and full of vibrant flavors.


Ingredients

2 cups cauliflower (chopped)

2 cups broccoli (chopped)

2 cups red cabbage (shredded)

1 cup carrots (grated)

1/2 cup flatleaf parsley (chopped)

2 celery stalks (chopped)

1/2 cup almonds (chopped)

1/4 cup sunflower seeds

1/4 cup organic raisins

Lemon Ginger Vinaigrette:

1/4 cup olive oil

3 tablespoons lemon juice

1 tablespoon fresh ginger (peeled and grated)

1 tablespoon honey

1/2 teaspoon sea salt


Instructions

  • Prepare the dressing by combining all vinaigrette ingredients in a mason jar. Seal and shake well to blend.

  • Rinse and dry the vegetables, then chop or grate them as needed.

  • Toss the cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage, carrots, parsley, and celery in a large mixing bowl.

  • Add the chopped almonds, sunflower seeds, and raisins, then drizzle the dressing over the salad.

  • Toss to coat evenly, then refrigerate for 10-15 minutes before serving for best flavor.


Notes

Add chopped kale or spinach for extra greens.

Swap Marcona almonds or pistachios for a unique nutty flavor.

Use golden raisins or fresh berries instead of regular raisins for added sweetness.

Keep the dressing separate if storing leftovers to maintain freshness.
