Lemon Salad for a Healthy Liver

Ingredients

  • 4 cups shredded Cabbage (green & purple)

  • 1 large Carrot, thinly sliced

  • 2 peeled lightly roasted or raw Beets, sliced

  • Large handful of fresh flat-leaf Parsley & Cilantro, roughly chopped

  • 1/2 Avocado, sliced

Optional: Sprinkle with 1 tsp. of high antioxidant Goji Berries

Lemon Ginger Dressing (makes 1 1/2 cups)

  • 3/4 cup freshly squeezed Lemon juice

  • 1/2 cup Extra-Virgin Olive Oil

  • 1 to 1 1/2-inch knob of fresh Ginger

  • 1 clove Garlic

  • 1 tablespoons raw Honey

Instructions

To prepare the dressing, combine all of the ingredients in a blender, starting with just 1-inch of fresh ginger, and blend until smooth. Add more ginger to taste (I LOVE lots of ginger!), if desired, and set aside. Toss together the cabbage, carrots, beets, and parsley-cilantro in a large bowl and top with the sliced avocado. Optional: sprinkle with goji berries.
