Raw Citrus Beet Salad

Tasty addition to your cleanse diet: Raw Citrus Beet Salad

INGREDIENTS

  • 3 medium to large beets, peeled and trimmed
  • 1 Valencia orange, zest and juice
  • 1 lime, zest and juice
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1/2 cup chives, minced

DIRECTIONS

Grate beets and add to bowl.
Add zest and juice from entire orange.
Add zest and juice from lime to taste.
Add olive oil and toss to combine.
Add chives just before serving.

PRO TIPS

Grate beets in the food processor to avoid staining everything in your kitchen bright pink. The grated beets can be dressed and kept in the refrigerator, covered well, for a couple of days. They become more tender but don’t lose their texture, and the mixture becomes even sweeter as the beet juices mingle with the citrus. Toss again before serving.
