Ingredients

Salad contains only healthy ingredients that go really well together:

• cabbage,
• lettuce,
• cherry tomatoes,
• red beans,
• onion,
• microgreens,
• walnuts and
• home-made dressing.

It is a very light but filling dish, because it contains walnuts and beans, which are a rich source of protein and cashew nuts, which represent a source of healthy fats. Cabbage and walnuts provide crunchiness, while tomatoes, beans and dressing provide the juiciness of the salad. Dressing is very simple and quick to make, but adds an exceptional flavour to the salad! It is made with cashews, nutritional yeast, cayenne pepper, salt and black pepper. We use store bought cashew butter, which is very creamy, but you can also make it at home by blending pre-soaked cashews into a smooth cream.

You can eat salad as a main dish, as it contains ingredients that will satiate you well, or you can eat it as a side dish and adjust the amount of salad.
