This salad is simple to make and tastes absolutely fantastic. It is loaded with nutrition, not just from the kale, beets, carrots, pea shoots, and sunflower seeds, but from a simple and powerful Asian dressing. The combination of honey and ginger makes this salad sing and provides anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory and immune boosting properties as well.
