Rainbow Salad with Lemon and Garlic Dressing

It has been raining a lot for days now, but from time to time the sun will come out a bit. And with it usually appears a beautiful rainbow as well. So I thought that a salad would be quite appropriate for this kind of weather. Let’s all eat the rainbow today! 😀

What does it mean to “eat the rainbow” anyway, and why should we do it? It is a playful and creative way for us to eat a wider variety of food. Plants get their colours from various phytonutrients, and eating as many differently coloured plants that you can, means you will be getting a whole spectrum of nutrients and along with them many health benefits. Plus it’s fun and pretty, so why not? 😀

This salad contains Pak Choi, red peppers, cherry tomatoes, carrots, walnuts, corn and blueberries. You may add some cooked red beans, which can easily turn this salad into a complete meal.
So on a rainy day enjoy some rainbow salad and know that the sun always comes out after the rain. 🌦️🌈☀️
