Kale, Beet and Seaweed Salad (Gluten Free)
With this dish, I am doing nothing more than group the veggies many of us wouldn't imagine eating raw. The result is a real triumph, so get ready to adopt them wholeheartedly into the family! You would enjoy beets and turnips much more often, even raw, if only you would grate them very fine in a food processor. The salad will keep well a good couple of days.
