Beet Salad


Beet Salad
Prep Time: 1 hr 20 min       Cook Time: 30 min     Ready In: 1hr 50 min
Serving Size: 4


I have found this recipe online and I have tried it out. The lettuce didn't really fit in here and I think it would be better to omit the lettuce.

INGREDIENTS

4 Medium Size Beets
3 Large Oranges
1 Lime
1/4 Cup Olive Oil
Salt to Taste
Ground Black Pepper to Taste
2 Tbs Orange Juice
1 Roman Lettuce


DIRECTIONS

Bring a pot of water to boil. Put in beets and turn heat to medium and cook for 30 minutes.
Cool beets and cube beets into big chucks. In a bowl, mix together orange zest, lime juice, orange juice,olive oil, salt, pepper and beets. Let beets cool for at least one hour in the fridge.

Cut the top and bottom of oranges. Remove peel with a knife and cut between skins to obtain orange wedge. 

Rinse roman lettuce and tear into pieces. Place lettuce onto a serving plate. Top with beets and orange slices and serve!
