Equipment
- Cutting board
- Knife
- Large mixing bowl
Ingredients
- 2 medium beetroots, cooked and peeled
- 1 large carrot, peeled and grated
- ½ cup walnuts, chopped
- ¼ cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Beetroot
If using fresh beetroots, wash them thoroughly and trim the tops. Wrap each beetroot in aluminum foil and roast in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 45-60 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork. Allow to cool slightly before peeling.
Step 2: Grate the Carrot and Chop the Beetroot
While the beetroot is cooling, grate the carrot using a box grater. Once the beetroot has cooled enough to handle, chop it into bite-sized pieces.
Step 3: Combine Ingredients in the Bowl
place the chopped beetroot, grated carrot, chopped walnuts, and parsley into a large mixing bowl.
Step 4: Prepare the Dressing
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step5: Dress and Serve
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients in the large bowl and toss gently to coat. Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for later.
Notes / Tips
- For a sweeter flavor, add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup to the dressing.
- Feel free to add other ingredients you enjoy, such as crumbled feta cheese, sunflower seeds, or chopped kale.
