Categories     Salad     Vegetable     Side     Freeze/Chill     Quick & Easy     Healthy

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 can (16 oz.) Sliced Beets
1 medium Onion, sliced
Ranch salad dressing
(any consistancy of dressing, Regular, Low Fat, Light, Fat Free will work)

Steps:

  • Drain liquid from beets. Add desired amount of salad dressing (I usually add enough to cover beets and onions). The mixture will all turn pink. Mix all ingredients together. Chill in refrigerator.

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-cooked beets. You can find them in the produce section of most grocery stores.
  • If you're using fresh beets, roast them until they're tender. To roast beets, preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Toss the beets with olive oil and salt, and roast for about 45 minutes, or until they're tender when pierced with a fork.
  • Let the beets cool completely before peeling and slicing them.
  • Use a variety of colors of beets to make your salad more visually appealing.
  • Add other vegetables to your salad, such as cucumbers, carrots, or celery.
  • For a creamy dressing, use Greek yogurt or sour cream. For a vinaigrette dressing, use olive oil, vinegar, and Dijon mustard.
  • Season your salad with salt, pepper, and fresh herbs, such as dill or parsley.
  • Serve your salad immediately or chill it for later.

Conclusion:

Chilled beet salad is a refreshing and healthy dish that's perfect for summer. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a light and flavorful salad, give chilled beet salad a try!
