Broccoli and almond salad

The broccoli and almonds in this salad are full of easily absorbable magnesium and calcium, and paired with a creamy tahini salad dressing, it’s a bonebuilding and calming treat! The radishes add colour and crunch. You can also add a thinly sliced red capsicum (bell pepper), for a bit of extra colour and nutrition.

Serves: 4

Ingredients:

Method:

  1. Add all the vegetables to a large bowl and gently toss until combined.
  2. Sprinkle the almonds over the top or serve them separately in a bowl.
  3. Pour the tahini dressing (or any creamy dressing of your choice) over the salad just before serving or serve it separately as well.
