This vibrant winter slaw with red pears and pumpkin seeds is a beautiful celebration of seasonal produce. Combining the earthy notes of shaved beetroot with the refreshing sweetness of ripe red-skinned pears, this vegan salad offers a sophisticated alternative to traditional coleslaw. The base of Brussels sprouts and radicchio provides a satisfying crunch and a hint of pleasant bitterness, all tied together by a bright, zingy blood orange and Dijon mustard dressing.
As a versatile plant-based dish, it works perfectly as a light lunch or a colourful side for a Sunday roast. The addition of roasted pumpkin seeds adds a layer of nutty flavour and essential texture, making it as nutritionally balanced as it is visually striking. Whether you are hosting a festive gathering or looking for a healthy, crisp winter salad, this recipe brings a fresh, modern touch to the table.
