Grate the Vegetables and Fruit: Using a box grater or food processor, grate the beetroot, carrot, and apple into thin, uniform shreds.
Mix the Base Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated beetroot, carrot, and apple. Toss them together to ensure even distribution.
Prepare the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, honey or maple syrup (if using), salt, and black pepper.
Combine and Toss: Pour the dressing over the grated mixture and toss until the vegetables and apple are well-coated.
Optional Additions: Sprinkle with chopped parsley, sunflower seeds, or nuts for added texture and flavor.
Serve and Enjoy: Transfer the salad to a serving bowl or plate. It’s ready to eat immediately or can be chilled for 15–20 minutes for a cooler, more refreshing taste.
