Steps:
- 1. Place drained beets in a bowl If they are whole, slice them up. Canned cubed beets work as well. You can also use fresh beets that have been cooked and cooled and sliced up.
- 2. Add the thinly sliced sweet onion to the bowl.
- 3. Add the fresh spinach to the bowl, and mix all ingredients together. If you do not like spinach, you can use romaine or any other lettuce instead.
- 4. Mix the dressing ingredients together in a separate bowl. I like to use artificial sweetener in salads because it is less grainy. Sweetener can be adjusted to your taste, but the salad should be slightly sweet.
- 5. Add the dressing to the beets, onion and spinach and mix well. Store leftovers in the refrigerator.
WARM BEET AND SPINACH SALAD
Steps:
- Place spinach in large bowl. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring, until starting to soften, about 2 minutes. add tomatoes, olives, parsley and garlic and cook, stirring, until the tomatoes begin to break down, about 3 minutes. Add beets, vinegar, salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until the beets are heated through, about 1 minute more. Add the beet mixture to the spinach and toss. Serve warm.
Tips:
- Select Fresh Ingredients: Use fresh, vibrant beets and spinach for the best flavor and texture.
- Roast the Beets: Roasting the beets intensifies their sweetness and gives them a slightly caramelized flavor.
- Slice the Beets Thinly: Thinly sliced beets will help them absorb the dressing better.
- Use a Good Quality Goat Cheese: A creamy, flavorful goat cheese will add a delicious tang to the salad.
- Make a Simple Dressing: A simple dressing made with olive oil, vinegar, honey, and Dijon mustard is all you need to enhance the flavors of the salad.
- Toss the Salad Gently: Be gentle when tossing the salad to avoid breaking the delicate beet slices.
- Serve Immediately: Serve the salad immediately after tossing to enjoy the vibrant colors and flavors.
