Did you ever think to combine cauliflower and broccoli to make a unique salad? Nobody wants to eat large florets of raw cauliflower or broccoli, which is why this salad is as far from that as possible. Think of this salad as more of a raw rice bowl because it calls for riced cauliflower and broccoli. Simply pulse together the raw cauliflower and broccoli florets in a food processor to rice them up! After that, you can begin making this powerhouse salad.

Cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and cauliflower contain sulforaphane, an antioxidant compound that may reduce the ability of cancerous cells to multiply. In doing so, sulforaphane may help slow the growth of tumors, or at least reduce their ability to spread. Because sulforaphane is extremely bioavailable, you do not need to combine other nutrients with it for optimal absorption. Simply eat cruciferous vegetables to provide your body with this antioxidant compound.

Besides the impressive nutritional profile, this salad provides lots of life and color. Although we only have a certain number of ingredients in this salad, you can add more if you want to. Great additional ingredients include red cabbage, carrots, collard leaves, and radishes. The ingredients we’ve chosen work well with an Asian-inspired dressing, so we hope you enjoy it.
