Creamy Beet Salad



Creamy Beet Salad

Ingredients
  • 4 medium beets
  • 1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 4 to 5 tablespoons olive oil style mayonnaise
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
Cooking Directions

  1. Wash beets, remove greens. Boil beets with skin on for about 1 hour or until easily pierced with a fork. Drain, rinse under running cold water. When beets are cool enough to handle, peel off skin. Using a mandolin or knife, julienne beets into thin matchsticks. Place beets in a large bowl, top with onion. In a small bowl, stir together salt, pepper, sugar and mayonnaise until creamy. Pour over beets and onion. Stir, refrigerate salad for about an hour to blend flavors.


Beets, Salad

*Beets can be made 2 to 3 days in advance. Store in the refrigerator until ready to use.
*Save beet greens. Make beet greens in the same way you would collard greens.
