Carrot and Beet Salad with Avocado Dressing

Ensalada de zanahoria y remolacha con salsa de aguacate

This salad stands out for its vibrant colors and a combination of textures that surprises the palate. The base of root vegetables, rich in beta-carotene and antioxidants, is elevated with an avocado sauce that adds a silky, healthy creaminess. To enhance the earthy flavor of the beetroot and the sweetness of the carrot without adding sodium, we will use Bonsalt 0%.

  • Difficulty:

  • Servings: 2 people

Ingredients

  • Vegetable base: 2 large carrots, 1 large cooked beetroot (or roasted), a handful of spinach or arugula sprouts.

  • For the avocado sauce: 1 ripe avocado, the juice of half a lime, 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, a splash of water (to adjust texture) and a few cilantro leaves.

  • Seasoning: Bonsalt 0% and ground black pepper.

  • Extra touch: Sesame seeds or sunflower seeds.

Step-by-Step Professional Preparation

  1. Preparing the vegetables: Peel the carrots and grate them or cut them into thin ribbons with a peeler. Cut the cooked beetroot into even cubes or thin slices.

  2. Base of the dish: Place a bed of green sprouts on a platter and arrange the carrot and beetroot on top in a harmonious way.

  3. Making the sauce: In a food processor or blender, place the avocado flesh, lime juice, olive oil, cilantro and a pinch of pepper.

  4. Technical seasoning: Add a generous amount of Bonsalt 0% to the mixture. Blend until smooth. If it is too thick, add a tablespoon of water until you reach a pourable sauce consistency.

  5. Assembly: Pour the avocado sauce over the vegetables. The green color of the sauce will create a spectacular contrast with the orange of the carrot and the purple of the beetroot.

  6. Final touch: Sprinkle the sesame seeds or seeds on top to add a crunchy note before serving.
