To be truthful, before I made this salad I thought there was a good chance it would taste like sh*t. Detox salad? It even sounds like it tastes bad. Detoxes aren’t fun, they don’t taste good, and more often than not they’re boring as f*ck. And let’s review the major ingredients:
- broccoli
- cabbage
- cauliflower
It’s basically a small child’s nightmare.
But, I was determined to make it taste good. Don’t get me wrong, I love cauliflower, broccoli, and cabbage. But I usually cook them individually, with a lot of butter. If you’re wondering why I would even attempt to make a raw broccoli, cabbage, and cauliflower salad taste good, or make a detox salad in the first place, it’s because I’m trying to eat more cruciferous veggies. They’re packed with nutrients and you guessed it – they help you detox. And promotes, you know, regularity. As a health coach, I find myself asking basic strangers their bathroom habits. It no longer phases me. If you’re not regular, eat this salad.
And thank me, because it actually tastes good.

How long will this last in the refrigerator? I’d like to make it but don’t want to eat it for 3 days straight.
About a week.
1 1/2 cups of olive oil?? Huh?
1.5 cups olive oil? 2 servings? … perhaps 1.5 T olive oil?
