Ingredients
- 4 cups arugula or spring mix, (80g)
- 1-2 heads fresh broccoli, chopped
- 3 beets (cooked or fresh), chopped
- 2 shallots, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, (4g)
- 1/4 cup fresh dill, (4g)
- 4 medjool dates, pitted, chopped
- 3 tbsp pistachios, chopped
- 3 tbsp almonds, sliced
Optional Maple Dijon Dressing
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, (60ml)
- 3 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 2 1/2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp dijon mustard
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp pepper
Instructions
- Make the maple dijon dressing by whisking the ingredients together (apple cider vinegar, maple syrup, dijon mustard, salt, pepper, and olive oil). Cover it and refrigerate it for now.
- If the beets are raw, peel and grate them. If they are already cooked or canned, slice them into wedges. Suggestion: use a dark colored cutting board and gloves because of the deep red hue from the beets.
- Prepare the other ingredients by cutting them as listed with the ingredients list. Assemble the salad by starting with the arugula or spring mix. Add the broccoli, beets, onions, herbs, dates, and nuts.
- Drizzle it with salad dressing. Enjoy!
