I keep seeing these gorgeous raw vegetable salads all over the web and I wanted one for myself. So that’s what I made for lunch the other day. I started with beautiful, thinly sliced veggies…
Added some other goodies, and ended up with this masterpiece of a salad:
Pretty and fresh. Healthy and tasty. Win, win. And it’s a good thing too, because I ate the entire platter by myself.

It’s a gorgeous dish. I look forward to trying it at a family event soon. Thanks for the recipe.
LOVE the design of this salad – making it tonight with the addition of shaved fennel. Thanks for being an edible artist. :)
