Raw Veggie Salad

 

By Peggy O'Mara

A simple raw vegetable salad is a nutritious and easy side dish.

2 cups alfalfa or sunflower sprouts

¼ cup grated raw beets

¼ cup grated raw carrots

Dressing:

2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

2 tablespoons soy sauce

¼ cup olive oil

¼ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon pepper

½ cup chopped green onion

1 clove minced garlic

Layer the sprouts, beets and carrots on a small plate just before serving. It's best if veggies are cold and crisp.

Mix dressing ingredients and pour over raw veggies. Garnish salad with 2 tablespoons roasted sesame or sunflower seeds. Roast seeds in dry cast iron skillet.
