Beet and Broccoli Salad
recipe by: Donna
Ingredients:
3 beets (tops and ends removed)
1 small bunch broccoli
1/4 red onion
1/4 cup light Marzetti Original Slaw Dressing
1/4 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
1/4 cup dried cranberries (optional)
Method:
Peel and slice beets. Cover with water in a 2 quart saucepan, bring to a boil, and cook until tender (20-30 minutes). Drain beets and dice. Chop broccoli and red onion. Mix beets, broccoli, and onion in slaw dressing. Stir in walnuts and dried cranberries. Chill for at least 1 hour.
Extra Information:
I am not a beet lover, but this salad is an excellent way to include this nutrient-rich root vegetable into your diet. For extra crunch, sprinkle rice noodles over each salad serving.
