• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 tablespoon sunflower seeds or walnuts (optional, for crunch)

2. Mix the Salad:
   • In a large bowl, combine the grated beetroots, carrots, and apple.
   • Drizzle the lemon juice over the salad to prevent the apple from browning and to add a fresh zing.

4. Season and Garnish:
   • Season the salad with salt and pepper to taste.
   • If desired, sprinkle sunflower seeds, walnuts, or fresh parsley over the top for extra flavor and crunch.
