What started out as a bit of an experiment has ended up as one of my favourite recipes. This makes a refreshing alternative to mayo-clad coleslaw, and is much better for you too. Tangy and colourful, this delicious side dish is super easy and quick to make and rich in calcium, iron and vitamins A and C.
Try adding some grated apple for a zesty, fruity taste.
1. Place the seeds in a dry frying pan and toast gently over a low heat for afew minutes until golden.
2. Combine in a bowl with the other ingredients and mix well.
3. Season to taste.
I hope you give this delicious tangy beet slaw a try! And if you do, be sure to tag the picture #AVogelRecipes on Pinterest so we can see :)
Due to its high fibre content, beetroot is great for supporting the digestive system, helping to prevent constipation and keep bowels healthy and regular. The iron content in beetroot means it’s good for those with anaemia and fatigue.
