This is a decorative side dish for your green salad.
3-4 fresh beets, peeled-cone #1
4 celery stalks-cone # 5 (reserve celery string strands)
jicama-cone #1
radishes- cone #5
1-2 red bell peppers, cut in thin rings
white cabbage
cherry tomatoes
parsley
any other red or green vegetables you want to use
1. Use trimmed and washed parsley (kale would work for a different effect), to create base for wreath.
2. Layer parsley on outer edges of plate,overlapping as necessary. Decorate parsley wreath with cherry tomatoes and radishes.
3. Form a ring of grated beets inside ring of parsley and put a medium sized green cabbage leaf in center.
4. Fill cabbage leaf with vegetables or dip of your choice. Place sliced bell pepper rings to form a "bow" at top of wreath.
5. Use grated jicama to create a "snow" effect. Cut celery string strands into thin strands, they will automatically curl. Use these sparsely on top of parsley for a lacy look.
Serve remaining ingredients in cabbage leaves or decorative bowls. Suggested use for wreath is for salad toppings.
