Beet and Carrot Salad
"Grated beet and carrot salad: the healthiest meal you’ll have all week. Carrots? Beets? Not much to say there, except they’re healthy to eat. How healthy? Ridiculously healthy. Beets, for one, have these phytonutrients. If it’s been a while since your last biology class, as it has for me, wiki says these substances found in plants are beneficial for health and disease prevention. They help fight environmental stress. And have shown promise in cancer studies. A word of warning: your number 1 and 2 may turn a purplish for a while after beet consumption. If number 1 is very purple, you may have trouble with iron levels. Want a fun fact? They’re a great aphrodisiac. Just consume them in raw or close to raw condition. But carrots, carrots are so cool they have a birthday. It’s April 4 if you’re interested."
