Perfect as a side or for lunch, this bright, beautiful and super healthy salad is from my book The Healthy Life, and since its gluten and dairy free it’s suitable for most diets. Add your favourite protein such as tempeh, tofu, chicken, turkey or fish for a more filling and extra nutritious main meal.
⅓ cup cold-pressed extra-virgin olive oil
You can add more flavour by using Herbamare Seasoning Salt, which is made from sea salt and fresh organically grown vegetables, garden herbs and iodine rich kelp.
1. Preheat the oven to 200o C. Line a large baking tray with baking paper.
2. In a large bowl toss together the cauliflower, salt, sumac, chilli flakes, pepper and olive oil. Spread onto the prepared tray and bake for 40 minutes, or until golden and roasted
3. To make the dressing, whisk all the ingredients together until smooth and combined.
4. Toss the roasted cauliflower, cranberries, pumpkin seeds, carrots and spinach leaves together, drizzle the salad with the dressing and scatter over the parsley.
