Ingredients

SALAD

  • 3 - 4 red or white Kohlrabi turnips (julienned)
  • 1 - 2 carrots (sliced)
  • 1 - 2 golden beets (sliced)
  • 1 orange (peeled and segmented)
  • 1/3 cup blueberries (halved)
  • 3 - 4 mint leaves (chopped)
  • 4 slices Hellim (Halloumi cheese, grilled and diced, optional)

DRESSING

  • 1 orange (juice and zest)
  • 1 lemon (juice and zest)
  • 3 tbsp garlic oil
  • 1 tsp blueberry honey
  • 1 - 2 pinches salt
  • Pinch pepper

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the orange juice, orange zest, lemon juice, lemon zest, blueberry honey, salt and pepper.
  • Drizzle in the garlic oil while whisking and continue to whisk until the dressing is well blended. Alternatively, combine everything in a jar with a tight-fitting lid and shake to combine.
  • In a separate bowl, combine Kohlrabi turnips, carrots, beets, orange segments, blueberries, and mint leaves, then toss in dressing.
  • Add additional salt and pepper to taste.

OPTIONAL

  • In a skillet on high heat, add olive oil. Once hot, add slices of Hellim cheese. Once browned, flip and repeat. Remove cheese from heat and slice into crouton-sized cubes. Add to salad as garnish.
