Rainbow Citrus Salad

This raw salad is bursting with flavor and healthy fats. It packs a nutritional punch due to its beetroot, kale, and cabbage. It is a cleansing, anti-inflammatory salad that is the perfect foil to all those breads and cookies we have been baking due to Covid-19. It is super easy and super bold in taste. We have made a spicy horseradish dressing with a touch of fresh lemon to top it off! This is a vegetarian salad that can be made vegan by using vegan mayonnaise and vegan yogurt. To add a protein you can use red quinoa, red french lentils or red kidney beans - which would be keeping up our color scheme!
