Golden Beet & Green Bean Salad with radishes, sunflower seeds, and dried cherries! Perfect for a light lunch, dinner, or picnic!

Well hello there, and Happy Father’s Day!

Your dad told me he was craving a big ole salad for his day, and who are we to deprive dad of some greens?

This Golden Beet & Green Bean Salad is a fresh mix of my favorite summer veggies with an oil-free champagne tahini dressing.

Gluten free, grain free, and oil-free, with a ten minute prep time.

You KNOW dear dad would be impressed with bragging rights like that.

This salad is plain summer fun.

Mildly sweet golden beet spirals, tender crisp green beans, crunchy sunflower seeds, and tart dried cherries.

It’s packed with bright flavors, texture, and crunch!

I dressed it with a light champagne tahini, but feel free to use a regular lemon tahini or your own favorite.

It also might be the “fastest” salad I’ve ever made; I mean, 10 minutes??

Yes, please.

The low prep time comes from the use of my favorite veggie noodles!

If you’ve been hanging out here for a while, you know that I’m a huge fan of Cece’s Veggie Noodle Co. products.

Their fun spiralized veggies always makes me feel funky and fresh just looking at them.

I was so excited to see their new line of Golden Beet Spirals!!!

Sooo…what will they spiral next?!

I know for a fact that I would eat beets more often if they were already cut, peeled, and tamed for me.

This salad is proof.
