The Perfect Side Salad
Ingredients for the Salad
- Baby greens or baby arugula
- Cabbage (it’s okay to use pre-shredded, like Dole’s red cabbage or Cole Slaw mix)
- Fresh beet, peeled and grated
- Toasted pumpkin seeds or sliced almonds
For the dressing
- Fresh lemon juice from ½ - 1 lemon, depending on how juicy it is
- Equal part olive oil
- Salt
Directions:Create an emulsion of the lemon juice and olive oil by combining and gently whisking together until combined. Add salt and stir a little more.
Combine salad ingredients. Toss with dressing and serve immediately.
This salad is great because it’s crisp and fresh and filled with vegetables. It also takes into account some of the
