Raw Energy Salad from Ripe Deli

 
 
The festive season is upon us and after indulging in a steady diet of party food I'm craving healthy food. This is one of my all time favourite salads from the Ripe Deli Cookbook.
 
Ripe Deli is in Grey Lynn. It was started by Angie Redfern who has a passion for producing fresh quality healthy food with a creative touch . Apart from those healthy salads it also sells decadent home-baked slices, cakes and brioches, a variety of gourmet sandwiches & wraps, chutneys, relishes , cured meats and cheeses.
