Sparkling Jewel Salad
By Jill Nussinow
This salad can be made with any vegetables that taste good raw and is perfect during the summer months when there is lots of fresh produce available at your local farmer's markets. The carrots and watermelon or daikon (or radish) add beautiful color. The sea vegetables add a salty flavor and lots of minerals. The agave adds a touch of sweetness and is a good balance to the lime.
