  1. Add ingredients to the Vitamix container.
  2. Blend on high until smooth.

Useful tips for Detox Salad

This salad is pretty hard to screw up.

Be super careful when you’re chopping all the ingredients. The cabbage, especially, can be a doozy if you’re not careful. Use golfball sized pieces and leave the tamper in the lid to push around the ingredients.

Using a low-profile 64-ounce container to make the dressing? You’ll need to double the recipe.

Don’t dress the whole batch, it will keep much longer if you store the salad and dressing separately in the fridge.

To keep the raisins and sunflower seeds from getting soggy, top salad with them right before serving.
