Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers

Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 pounds red beets, tops removed and scrubbed
8 ounces baby Chioggia beets, tops removed and scrubbed
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons grapeseed or safflower oil
3 tablespoons pure honey
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 lemon plus 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, divided
1 green apple
4 ounces fresh goat cheese, coarsely crumbled (about 3/4 cup)
2 cups sprouts or microgreens, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place red beets in a baking dish just large enough to hold them in a single layer and add enough water to come three quarters of the way up sides of beets. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon salt and drizzle with grapeseed oil. Cover with foil and bake until tender and easily pierced with a knife, about 1 hour. Transfer beets to a cutting board. When just cool enough to handle, remove skins, cut into 1/4-inch slices, and transfer to a bowl.
  • Meanwhile, place baby beets in small saucepan and cover with 2 inches cold water. Add 1 teaspoon salt and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until tender and easily pierced with a knife, about 25 minutes. Drain beets; when just cool enough to handle, remove skins; cut into halves or wedges, depending on size; and transfer to another bowl.
  • Whisk together honey, olive oil, and 3 tablespoons lemon juice; add 1 teaspoon salt and season with pepper. Reserve 1/4 cup dressing; divide remaining dressing between bowls of warm beets; toss beets to coat.
  • Halve lemon and squeeze juice into a bowl of cold water; drop lemon halves in it. Peel apple, cut into small pieces (you should have about 1 cup), and submerge in lemon water. When ready to serve, drain apple and blot dry. Arrange beets on a serving platter and drizzle with reserved dressing. Top with apple, goat cheese, and sprouts and serve immediately.

GREEN APPLE AND BEET SALAD

This is a delicious recipe, ready in 2 minutes (really)! A nice, colourful change from the traditional salad. In the fall, use fresh beets and apples from local produce. I like to use Recipe# 367987 for the vinaigrette.

Categories     Apple

Time 2m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 (398 ml) can sliced beets, drained
1 green apple (Granny Smith)
1 tablespoon vinaigrette, of your choice

Steps:

  • Wash, quarter and core the apple. Slice thinly.
  • Mix beet and apple slices.
  • Add vinaigrette; toss to coat.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Granny Smith apples are the best choice for this salad, as they are tart and crisp. You can also use Honeycrisp or Braeburn apples.
  • Use fresh beets: Fresh beets have a more vibrant flavor than canned beets. If you can't find fresh beets, you can use canned beets, but be sure to rinse them well before using.
  • Roast the beets: Roasting the beets intensifies their flavor and makes them easier to peel. You can roast the beets in the oven or on a grill.
  • Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will make it easier to slice the apples and beets thinly. This will help the salad look more elegant and make it easier to eat.
  • Don't overdress the salad: A little bit of dressing goes a long way. You don't want to overwhelm the flavors of the apples and beets with too much dressing.

Conclusion:

This green apple and beet salad is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy these two vegetables. The tartness of the apples and the sweetness of the beets complement each other perfectly, and the dressing adds a nice tang. This salad is also very versatile. You can add other ingredients, such as nuts, seeds, or cheese, to suit your taste. It's a great salad to serve at a party or potluck, or to enjoy as a light lunch or dinner.
