This celeriac salad with avocado mayo dressing will even satisfy the taste buds of the pickiest eaters! This salad is both crunchy and moist and has a very interesting blend of flavors. Raw vegan and healthy too!
Avocado mayo is bliss! I just love it! I recently started eating more avocados, as I finally learned how to pick them right! Now I almost always have at least one avocado in the house. I usually add them to salads or use them in desserts, but I’ve never tried avocado mayo until now! Well, no more regular egg-based mayo for me from now on!
Why celeriac?
Celeriac is one of my favorite root vegetables. I love celeriac juice, celeriac salad, and celeriac soup! Everything with celeriac si simply great. What I don’t like about it, though, is that it’s pretty difficult to peel and grate. I always ask somebody else to grate celeriac for me :). By the way, have you ever tried celeriac puree? Pure awesomeness!
I’m sure you’ll love this celeriac noodle salad as much as I do! It has such an amazing blend of textures. The crunchy celeriac noodles go great with the creamy avocado dressing and soft, pickled red bell peppers. The flavors are just perfect together. I also added some mustard in the avocado mayo and it made it even better! Plus, look at it! It has such lovely colors! 🙂
The corn flakes are entirely optional. I added them for two reasons: they look nice and they add some extra crunch.
This celeriac salad is raw vegan, macrobiotic and perfect for summer! It will be ready in 10-15 minutes and serves 4. Enjoy! 🙂

Buna, Ruxandra! Cum alegi avocado, cel verde/negru/mare/mic? care e cel mai bun, ca eu il nimeresc ba prea tare, ba stricat in interior? Multumesc pt minunatele retete vegetariene si pt idei! cu mare drag, Elena

Buna! Multumesc! :D Nu conteaza daca e negru sau verde, sunt doar soiuri diferite. Eu in verific in asa fel incat la apasare sa fie foarte putin moale iar daca ii scot tumburusul acela din varf, sub el trebuie sa fie o culoare usor maronie, nu verde. Daca e verde inseamna ca nu e copt, cand e maro deschis inseamna ca e ready to eat. :) De asemenea, cumpar de obicei la punguta din Carrefour sau Mega, avocado la 10-13lei punga. E cel mai bun. Chiar daca e mai tare cand il cumpar, se coace in casa in 2-3 zile.
