“NUMEROUS SCIENTIFIC STUDIES NOW CONFIRM THAT A WHOLE FOODS DIET COMPRISED PRIMARILY OF VEGETABLES, FRUITS, GRAINS, LEGUMES, AND NUTS WITHOUT ADDED OIL, SUGAR, AND SALT IS OPTIMAL FOR HUMAN HEALTH, NOT ONLY PREVENTING A BROAD RANGE OF DISEASE AND ILLNESSES, BUT ALSO REVERSING SOME OF THE MOST DANGEROUS CHRONIC CONDITIONS.  THIS FINDING IS OF THE HIGHEST IMPORTANCE TO THE COMMONWEALTH BECAUSE IT COMMUNICATES A TRUTH THAT HAS THE POWER TO SAVE LIVES.”        

– PLANTPURE NATION 

 

 

This is a delicious and unique spin on the classic slaw recipe.  Crisp celery root, crunchy pumpkin seeds, sweet raisins, and a creamy dressing make this dish amazing.

Celery Root Apple Slaw

Celery Root Apple Slaw

 

 Celery Root

Some of you may have never heard of celery root, also know as celeriac.  It is celery of a variety that forms a large swollen turniplike root that can be eaten cooked or raw.   Here’s a picture.

Celery Root Apple Slaw

 

The outside is rough and brown and the inside is a creamy white color.  It tastes like a cross between celery and a potato to me.  The texture is kind of like a potato, but it can be eaten raw or cooked.  It seems that  some of my readers are not open to trying new ingredients, but I hope to change that over time!  If you can find Celery Root/Celeriac in your grocery store or farmers market then I highly suggest you give this recipe a try.   An easy way to get used to the flavor is to boil it with potatoes when making creamy mashed potatoes.  It gives your mashed potatoes a little kick, but it’s not overwhelming!

 

Substitutions

If you can’t find celery root then you could make this slaw recipe the old fashioned way with cabbage instead!  You could even try using large radishes.  I found some organic radishes at the farmers market the other day and immediately thought of using them in this recipe!

 

Health Benefits of This Meal

“Celery Root is rich in vitamins A, C, K and E, essential oils, carotene, microelements and other nutrient.  Celery root has excellent calming, analgesic, antiseptic, anti allergic and other therapeutic properties. This natural product is recommended to patients who suffer from various problems with digestive system, including ulcers, gastritis, indigestion, a lack of appetite and so on.”

Celery Root and Apple Slaw with Pumpkin Seeds and Raisins

Celery Root Apple Slaw Serves 2 – 3
Print
Course Lunch
Prep Time 20 minutes
Total Time 20 minutes
Author Daytime Vegan

Ingredients

  • 1 cup cashews
  • ¼ cup red onion
  • 1 teaspoon coriander
  • 2 teaspoons agave nectar
  • 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • ¾ cup water filtered if possible
  • salt to taste
  • 2 celery roots peeled and cut into strips
  • 2 gala apples cored, cut into strips
  • ½ cup raisins any type
  • ½ cup roasted pumpkin seeds a.k.a pepitas

Instructions

  1. Place the first 8 ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.
  2. Place the celery root and apples in a large bowl. Pour the sauce in the bowl and toss everything together. Top with raisins and pumpkin seeds.

Recipe Notes

Celery Root might be tough for some of you to cut. Some food processors have the attachment that cuts vegetables into strips so check to see if yours does that. You could probably use a grater too.
If you can't find Celery Root, or think you won't like it, just use about 3 cups regular green or red cabbage instead. It will be delicious!

    I really admire people who can only eat fruits and veggies and no any meat at all. I tried cutting my meats and just eating veggies fish and sometime breast chicken but I can only do it for 1 to 2 weeks.

    That smoothy looks amazing! It’s funny because I ate 2 large watermelons a week while I was pregnant with my daughter and she seems fairly unimpressed with it now. Maybe I ate too much while I was pregnant too!

    Well, I admire Vegan people because they maintained their food intake all the time. Unlike my family and myself, really into meats, seafood, and veggies too. I think, it’s a matter of preference in life and eating habits. Altogether, the same thing I ate ever since.

    I’m a bit frustrated about juicing and making lovely smoothies like yours, as I would want to do it, but realized that where we are, it’s a bit more pricey to do so. I have all these smoothie recipes in my kindle and I read a lot of recipe blogs like yours, so I do hope I get to try them one days soon.

    My family has members who have life threatening multiple food allergies, so since we have SO many restrictions already it’s hard to go on a specific diet we want to. We use all that we can and use it all. I really like these recipes, they all look SO good, I wish we could have it all. Mental notes – for all that we can have and customize! Thanks for sharing. 🙂

    Hi Monique, I found you on Instagram and immediately checked out your website. I love it! Your picture in the about section is radiant. I love watermelon, and it was my obsession during my pregnancy. I am always looking for different ways to use it in recipes or drinks. Thank you for sharing!

      Sorry for taking so long to respond. I’ve been making some backend changes to my site for a while and haven’t checked comments lately, but thank you very much for the kind words. I don’t know what it is with watermelon and pregnancy, but several people have been telling me they craved it during pregnancy also! It’s very interesting. Thank you again, I appreciate your comment.
