Rainbow Detox Salad

From the minute I got my spiralizer, I knew I wanted to make a beet salad.  I just love beets.  Roasted, raw, juiced or as chips.  This salad is not only delicious, it will make you feel amazing!  The very first thing I did with the spiralizer was make my Zucchini Pasta with Avocado Pesto.

    4. I've been meaning to get a spiralizer for about a year now, since around the time I got my dehydrator! Thanks for the reminder with this amazing looking salad! I have to say I never liked beets until I tried them raw - oh my amazing!
    5. This salad looks delicious! I don't have a spiralizer or shredder but hoping to peel just like the carrot...? Is the beet raw?? I have not eaten them uncooked before. Either way, can't wait to try! Thanks for sharing :)
      1. Thanks! Yes the beet is raw. You may be able to make this using a peeler. If you try, let me know how it works.
