Rainbow grater salad

The beauty of this idea is realised with a grater unit (an electric processor with grater blade). You dump everything in, press 'go' and out pumps a bunch of midweek lunch solutions, with three serves of vegetables per bowl.

  • makes 6-8 cups serves
  • preparation 10 minutes
  • difficulty Easy level

Ingredients

  • 1 large zucchini
  • 2 large carrots
  • 80 g block tasty cheddar
  • 1 small red onion
  • 1 green apple
  • 1 large beetroot or ½ red cabbage
  • 4 organic eggs, hard-boiled, cooled and peeled
  • mayonnaise, guacamole or basil pesto and small basil leaves

Instructions

  1. Chop the zucchini, carrots, cheese, onion, apple and beetroot or cabbage into chunks that will fit into your grater unit.
  2. Using a food processor fitted with the grater attachment, feed the ingredients through the feeder tub with the machine running and then blitz in descending order. If using a box grater, grate directly into a large salad bowl. Pass the boiled eggs through the grater last.
  3. Scoop the grated vegetable mixture into jars and dollop with mayo, pesto or guacamole. Seal and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Note

• The grated vegetable mixture can be turned into Rainbow fritters after a day or two – drain the liquid, add chia seeds or cornflour and 1–2 eggs.
