Detox Salad Recipe

Dressing Ingredients
1/4 cup macadamia nuts
1 tablespoon water
1/4 teaspoon lime zest
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
Pinch of salt
Pinch of cayenne pepper
Salad Ingredients
1 cup broccoli, finely chopped in food processor
1/2 cup diced fennel
1/2 cup diced peeled raw apple
1/4 cup chopped spinach
2 Tbsp toasted sunflower seeds
2 Tbsp currants
small pinch salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
1. Wash vegetables. In a food processor, finely chop broccoli and set aside in a salad bowl. Add a small pinch of salt and massage with your fingers for 30 seconds.
2. Wash and dry out food processor and then add macadamia nuts and finely grind them for 30 seconds. Add the remaining ingredients and pulse until creamy; add more water, a 1/2 a teaspoon at a time, to thin out as desired.
3. Transfer the dressing to a bowl. Chop up all the rest of the vegetables in a same bowl as broccoli. Add sunflower seeds and currants. Pour the dressing over the salad and serve.
