It's time for another cooking post, but this time there isn't any cooking involved. I came across this recipe on the Pinch of Nom website, which many people on Slimming World as well as Weight Watchers use, this recipe is originally using Spiralized fruit and veg but I don't having anything that can spiralize food, so I stuck to good old chopping. If you do want to follow the original recipe I will add the link at the end.

Ingredients:
1 apple, chopped
1 fresh beetroot, chopped
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1/2 tbsp lemon juice
1 handful mixed salad leaves
1 stick celery, roughly chopped
2 spring onions, roughly chopped
1 piece cucumber, cut into chunks
1 handful cherry tomatoes, cut in half

First up mix the balsamic vinegar and lemon juice together in a bowl, jug or glass and set aside for later.

Next, peel and chop up the apple, as well as the beetroot, spring onions, cucumber, celery stick and cherry tomatoes.

Next, either on a plate, bowl or lunch box, place the salad leaves.

Next, place the apple and beetroot on top of the salad leaves.

Next, place in your cucumber, celery, spring onions and cherry tomatoes.

Lastly, it's time to drizzle on the balsamic dressing and enjoy.

I wasn't a big fan of the beetroot as I prefer beetroot to be pickled but altogether the flavours were really nice and really worked together. I thought this was a perfect recipe for a meal on a hot day and even for work when you're working a full day, when you're breaks are limited. I really thought this was a really refreshing salad and would happily make it again, but maybe this time I'd change the beetroot from fresh to pickled.

If you would like to follow the original recipe then head over to Syn Free Spiralized Apple and Beetroot.

See you soon!
