Healthy Beet, Carrot and Cabbage Salad

A very healthy and tasty cabbage and raw vegetable salad which was unexpectedly good, at least for me. This salad was recommended to me by the nutritionist as a dinner option in a weight loss diet, so you'll realize it didn't sound too good in the first place. It turned out to be a very pleasant surprise, it became my favourite and my children's too. Now, in the season of cabbage, carrots and new beets it's particularly tender and sweet.

Besides cabbage, carrots and beets - yes, yes, all raw! - I added a little celery root, cucumber, red pepper and onion. I can tell you for sure that you will have not only health benefits, but also experience a great gourmet pleasure.
