Ingredients
Cauliflower Layer Salad
- Ingredients
- ½ Cauliflower (about 350 grams)
- salt
- 3 Tbsps sea buckthorn berry juice
- 3 Tbsps mineral water
- cayenne pepper
- liquid Sweetener (to taste)
- 3 tsps olive oil
- 4 ozs Smoked turkey breast (in slices)
- 2 slices Whole Grain Toast
- 1 large carrot (about 150 grams)
- 6 sprigs Basil
Separate the cauliflower into florets, then rinse and drain. Cook in plenty of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, 3-4 minutes. Drain and let cool.
Stir together the sea buckthorn juice and mineral water in a small bowl. Season with salt and cayenne pepper and add a few drops of sweetener (or to taste). Whisk in 1 teaspoon oil until combined.
Cut the sliced turkey breast into thin strips. Cut each toast slice into 4 strips.
Heat the remaining oil in a pan and cook the sliced toast over low heat until golden brown.
Cut the cooled cauliflower florets into thin slices.
Peel the carrot and grate finely on a box grater.
Rinse the basil, shake dry and pluck leaves. Reserve some leaves for garnish and cut the rest into strips.
Layer the grated carrots, cauliflower slices, basil strips and turkey in 2 glass bowls, dividing evenly. Drizzle with the buckthorn sauce, garnish with reserved basil leaves and serve with toast points.

Healthy, because
Vegetables and wholemeal toast provide a good portion of dietary fibre, which helps the digestion and makes it more satisfying. Smoked turkey breast also brings valuable protein to the table.
Even smarter
Because it stays crisp for a long time, this salad is ideal as a snack to take to the office or on the road. Simply pack it in a well-closing freezer or a large screw-top jar.
