Beet Salad |
Something that my mother-in-law loves to cook with is beets. She boils them, roasts them and pickles them. She'll add them to a soup or a salad. She can do just about anything with a beet.
My favourite is a beet salad. Especially in the summer. It's so easy to make and I usually prepare this salad in advance and refrigerate until ready to serve.
The only downfall to working with beets is that they stain your hands and clothes, so I recommend wearing an apron and wearing gloves while handling this root vegetable. I also recommend eating organic beets since they grow underground.
Now this is a real beet salad!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely simple summer salad. It has wonderful color and has great eye appeal. I also happen to like beets and appreciate new ways to prepapre them. Have a great day. Blessings...Mary
ReplyDeleteMy mother always made a pickled beet salad for our picnics. She used eggs in it and mayo. My kids HATED it. :) But my sister and I loved it. Haven't thought about it for ages. I really do love fresh beets and like the way you've pickled them and served them simply so their flavor shines through.
