This jewel-toned sweet slaw is beautiful, refreshing, and delicious. A great recipe for beet fans and beet hesitaters alike.

Ingredients

• 1 pound beets, peeled
• 1 apple (about 1/2 pound)
• 1/4 pound carrots, peeled
• 1/2 cup fresh parsley, minced
• 2 tablespoon apple cider
• 2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
• 2 tablespoon olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste

Preparation

Using the shredding blade of a food processor or a grater, shred the beets, apple, and carrots. Mix well with the remaining ingredients. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately or refrigerate to let the flavors blend.

Try using other varieties of beets, like golden or Chioggia beets, for an even more colorful salad.
