While I am very ready for spring, this winter doesn’t seem to be ready to retreat. So instead of fighting it I decided to embrace it. I figured if I please winter, then it might be nice back and leave asap. Here is the plan: I was going to use up all the winter vegetables I have in the house to make room for the springy greens and such. In order to do that I had to dig deep and access my Russian roots. Here is what I came up with: a beautiful, healthy and very nutritious salad that won’t break your budget. First off, let me warn you it contains beets. Of course, it does! It is Russian after all. Secondly, it provides very much needed vitamin C that comes from cabbage. Surprised? Don’t be because cabbage has as much if not more vitamin C than a traditional orange and virtually no sugar! I cannot tell you enough just how healthy this salad is, so do yourself a favour and give it a try.

This recipe has been adapted from the South Beach Diet recipe.  I stumbled upon this little gem when a friend of mine was on the South Beach Diet. I fell in love with it on the first bite. The fact that my husband likes it makes it a home run and has doubled the number of health foods I can cook for him.
