Mom’s Rainbow Salad
4 steps
Prep:15min
A standard from Gretchen’s kitchen. Full of color and a family favorite! Measure with your heart-this is a suggestion, but don’t omit the red cabbage (trust me).
This salad has been a constant throughout my life—there is always a massive container of this prepped and ready to eat in mom’s fridge. Once we eat through it, another is made!
This salad is so versatile—fantastic as a side dish with dinner, as a bed for your protein of choice (for omnivores, a household classic is baked salmon), or as a meal in its own right when topped with nuts, seeds, chickpeas, etc. Add any array of preferred veg or greens—fresh, seasonal additions are spectacular (we love a garden-fresh, sun-warmed tomato).
If prepping ahead or for a crowd, omit toppings and dressing until serving!
