Beet Salad

Ingredients

  • 4 large beets, fresh

  • 1 medium red onion

  • 2 Tbs vegetable oil

  • 1 Tbs cider vinegar

  • 1/2 tsp salt (sea salt if on a corn-free diet*)

  • 1/2 tsp pepper

Ruby red and tart, this salad goes well with rustic grilled poultry; or serve it on top of a mixed green salad.

Directions

  • Scrub beets to remove any dirt or soil. (Do not peel, as the peel slides off easily after cooking).
  • Place beets and enough water to cover them in a medium-sized saucepan. Cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 45 minutes, until beets are tender, but not mushy.
  • Drain and rinse with cold water. Hold each beet under cold running water and slip the skin off. Slice crosswise into 1/4-inch (1/2cm) slices, and place in a shallow bowl.
  • Slice onions into rings. Add to beets.
  • Mix oil, vinegar, salt and pepper in a small bowl and pour over beets and onions. Gently mix to combine.
  • Chill for several hours before serving.
