The Pink Salad

Named so because the beetroot will taint everything else a lovely rosy red color! There's also avocados and chick peas.

Ingredients:
  • 1 carrot
  • 1/2 -1/4 of a green zuccini
  • 1/2 green pepper
  • 1 beetroot
  • 1/4 avocado
  • 1/2 cup of chick pea
  • 3-4 gherkins
  • 1 jalepeno pepper
For the dressing:
  • Juice of one lime
  • Dry rosemary
  • Handful of coriander
  • Dash of olive oil
To make:
  • Pre-soak the chickpeas overnight - at least for 8-10 hours. That way they are tender enough to eat raw. Else, boil them for some time.
  • Peel the beetroot skin. Wash all the ingredients and chop up.
  • Toss them all up together in a bowl.
  • Add the dressing on top.
