Chopped salad with beets and apples.
Ingredients
  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • juice of ½ a lime (or lemon)
  • ½ tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon of minced ginger (I grated mine on my microplane grater)
  • 2-3 dates, pitted, barely covered in water, and microwaved for 30 seconds to soften
  • 1 cup of shredded jicama (or radish)
  • 1 apple, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium beetroot, thinly sliced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 2 cups of cabbage, thinly sliced
  • ½ cup of shredded carrot
  • a small handful of basil, shredded
  • a big handful of mint, shredded
  • a big handful of lettuce leaves (I used baby lettuce)
  • a big handful of shredded cooked chicken
Instructions
  1. For the dressing: combine soy, vinegar, lime juice, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and dates with water in a jug and blend with an immersion blender. (Or use a regular blender or food processor)
  2. For the salad: I used the slicing blade on my food processor to achieve really thin slices of the jicama, apple, beetroot, pepper, and cabbage. If you don't have a processor, you can use a mandoline, or just a good knife. Once everything is chopped and shredded, toss together with the dressing in a large bowl.
