A warm colorful salad of roasted beets and purple cabbage, sprouts and herbs that is a feast for the eyes and palate and suitable for any meal. The salad is very easy to prepare, it just requires a little time because of the roasting of the beets :) Health benefits: Purple-black vegetables contain anthocyanins, which are powerful antioxidants that protect against the oxidation of LDL ("bad cholesterol"), improve blood vessel elasticity, reduce inflammation, reduce blood clots

I wrote about the wonderfulness of this pulse in another recipe. This ultimate very green salad that both cleanse and nurtures in terms of protein, complex carbohydrates, minerals and vitamins. Like its little sisters (mung beans, black lentils), it contributes to lowering triglycerides and cholesterol , diabetes and may contribute to weight loss . I've also added celery and fennel which contribute to cleansing (=detox, for those looking for an accessible spring cleaning). W
