There is nothing better than a quick and healthy dinner option, this is one of our go-to recipes! the salad dressing can be made in advance and stored in the fridge. As the salad is free from leafy greens, it is also perfect for work lunches as it doesn’t get soggy or you can make it ahead and dress the salad as needed.
To make it a complete meal simply add some protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, fish or beef. you can further balance the meal by adding in some food fat such as avocado!

E Q U I P M E N T
For this recipe, you will need a food processor, the grater disc and the shredder disc. I used the larger option for both of these, however, if you would like a more fine salad go for the smaller option.
If you do not have a food processer you are able to use a box grater for the carrots and a sharp knife for all the other ingredients. It will be just as delicious however will take a little bit longer to make.
