Spicy Beet & Carrot Slaw

Crunchy, spicy, and hydrating! It is so important to stay hydrated during the hot months. Spending time in the sun, sweating, and even indulging in treats and alcohol can leave us dehydrated. When we don't have enough water there are a full spectrum of symptoms that can arise:

Fatigue

Blurry vision

Headaches

Joint Pain

Lack of focus

Drinking water all day can get boring and may not be possible. Luckily, we can also hydrate with foods! Snacking on these fruits and veggies, and including them in meals will support hydration levels. Here are some of my favorites:

Watermelon

Spinach

Strawberries

Cabbage

Celery

Cucumber

Broccoli

Cauliflower

Carrots

Tomatoes

Cilantro

Beets

This summer slaw is a great side (and taco topping) that will fill you up and leave you hydrated!
