SPINACH, AVOCADO, AND BEET SALAD

Salad

3-4 cups baby spinach (or mix of arugula and spinach)

1 small raw beet (peeled and cut into 1 inch cubes)

1-2 shredded carrots (optional – I did not include them in my version, but they do make a tasty addition)

½ c red onion

1/2 avocado, cubed

Large handful of slivered almonds (optional: you can use sprouted raw sunflower seeds, by Go Raw, as well)

Dressing

Combine all dressing ingredients in blender, and blend on high until smooth and creamy.

½ c unsweetened almond milk

1 T apple cider vinegar

1 T olive oil

1 T Dijon mustard

Juice from ½ small lemon

Salt, pepper, garlic powder to taste

½ avocado, mashed into rest of dressing ingredients

Pour dressing over Salad and toss until fully combined.
