Beet Salad with All the Fixins’
Using Levana Nourishments Mixed Berry
Everyone celebrate autumn (okay, winter) in the way that makes them most happy, cozy and comfortable. Since we are huge salad eaters at home, our seasonal celebrations most often gravitate around the food that best express the seasons. So salads are a great showcase! Beets, red apple, red grapefruit, red cabbage? With a fruity cranberry dressing and a drizzle of pomegranate molasses? Mmmmmm…..
You will find my Autumn Beet Salad quite versatile:
Let me start by saying I am thrilled for the brave little beet. We grew up eating beets everyday, but in America they were scorned and all but ignored, scoring points mostly for their help with our, hmmm, regularity. More power to the humble root that recently moved from wallflower to rock star status. Now we regularly enjoy it, cooked or raw, in risotto, cake, latkas, smoothies, soups, And of course, in salads. I cannot resist making it even healthier and more delicious by adding a pouch of Levana Nourishments Mixed Berry
In our, the consumers’ defense, I’ll say:
Beets can be somewhat high maintenance
The prolonged cooking they necessitate can really be a deterrent. But the good news is, we can now easily find perfect, peeled, roasted and vacuum-packed beets, which makes them a snap to use
I will start with the basic beet salad I started out with, and list all the variations, including main course. It has no salad leaves, and therefore it is sturdy and perfect even the next couple days
