Green bean masala salad

Isn't this green bean salad absolutely beautiful? It's from Jennifer, our raw food writer. Here's what she has to say about it:

When the green beans are dripping off the vine, it's time to come up with a raw green bean salad recipe! So here she is. I love coriander, but if you don't have it ground you may want to leave it out; the crunchy seeds will not soften in this raw dish.

It's filled with an abundance of Indian-flavored spices, including garam masala and cumin, and dressed with a healthy mix of olive oil, agave nectar and lime juice. I love that she decided to add carrots to this recipe. They add not only a boost of color, but also extra vitamins and a layer of chewy texture to the beans. Thanks, Jennifer!
