Need a little pick-me-up?
This stunning beet salad will make you smile to the very last bite. The slightly-sweet vinaigrette dressing is so good that you will want to experiment with it on other dishes, too.
Another bonus, you can easily make this salad your own. If you have beets of any color, you’re set. All of the other ingredients are negotiable. That is a real plus for these times when trips to the grocery store are difficult or impossible.
There is a third bonus, too. In times when it is difficult to eat healthy, this salad is a winner. Beets are loaded with nutrients. They are low fat and low in calories. They are a high fiber food, too. Beets are also believed to keep us healthy in myriad ways–lowering blood pressure, fighting inflammation and aiding digestion.
If you are looking for a rainbow right now, this beet salad is a rainbow in a bowl.
Here’s the recipe.
