Time 2h48m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 beets, washed and trimmed
1 ear fresh corn in the husk
2 (15 ounce) cans chickpeas, rinsed and drained
1 cup grape tomatoes
1 cup sliced romaine lettuce, or more to taste
⅓ cup shelled edamame
2 stalks celery, finely chopped
1 carrot, finely chopped
1 lime, zested and juiced
¼ cup olive oil
1 green onion, sliced
1 small garlic clove, minced, or more to taste
¼ teaspoon ground cumin
¼ teaspoon chili powder
¼ teaspoon salt, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Wrap beets tightly in aluminum foil.
  • Roast beets in the preheated oven until tender and easily pierced with a knife, about 1 hour.
  • Cut off the top and bottom 1/2-inch of the corn ear. Moisten with water and place on a microwave-safe dish. Cook in the microwave on high, 3 to 4 minutes. Let cool until easily handled, about 5 minutes. Slide husk off the cob and cut off the kernels with a sharp knife.
  • Combine corn, chickpeas, tomatoes, lettuce, edamame, celery, and carrot in a large bowl.
  • Whisk lime zest, lime juice, olive oil, green onion, garlic, cumin, chili powder, and salt in a small bowl until well-combined. Pour vinaigrette over chickpea mixture. Refrigerate salad until beets are ready.
  • Unwrap beets and cool until easily handled, about 10 minutes. Peel, dice, and stir into salad. Chill 1 hour to overnight to develop flavors.
