MADDY'S QUICK AND EASY BEET AND SPINACH SALAD



Maddy's Quick and Easy Beet and Spinach Salad image

This quick and easy beet salad goes with any meal!

Provided by Maddy HELEINE

Categories     Other Salads

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

15 oz can of sliced beets
1/2 small sweet or white onion sliced thinly
2 c fresh spinach leaves
FOR THE DRESSING
3 Tbsp heaping tablespoons of mayonnaise
1/2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
6 pkg artificial sweetener (or regular sugar to your taste)

Steps:

  • 1. Place drained beets in a bowl If they are whole, slice them up. Canned cubed beets work as well. You can also use fresh beets that have been cooked and cooled and sliced up.
  • 2. Add the thinly sliced sweet onion to the bowl.
  • 3. Add the fresh spinach to the bowl, and mix all ingredients together. If you do not like spinach, you can use romaine or any other lettuce instead.
  • 4. Mix the dressing ingredients together in a separate bowl. I like to use artificial sweetener in salads because it is less grainy. Sweetener can be adjusted to your taste, but the salad should be slightly sweet.
  • 5. Add the dressing to the beets, onion and spinach and mix well. Store leftovers in the refrigerator.

Tips:

  • Choose tender, leafy spinach and fresh beets: The foundation of a great salad lies in its ingredients. Opt for tender, leafy spinach and fresh beets to ensure a vibrant and flavorful result.
  • Prepare beets in advance: Roasting or boiling beets can take some time, so it's a good idea to prepare them ahead of time. This allows them to cool properly and makes assembly quicker and easier.
  • Use a variety of textures: Incorporate different textures into your salad for added interest. Crunchy walnuts, creamy goat cheese, and tangy citrus segments all contribute to a well-balanced and enjoyable dish.
  • Make a flavorful dressing: A well-made dressing can elevate the salad to new heights. Experiment with different flavor combinations, such as a tangy vinaigrette or a creamy honey-mustard dressing, to find one that complements the ingredients.
  • Adjust the flavors to your liking: The beauty of a salad is its customizability. Feel free to adjust the proportions of ingredients and dressing to suit your personal preferences. More cheese? Less vinegar? It's your salad, so make it your own!

Conclusion:

This versatile spinach and beet salad offers a delightful combination of flavors and textures that is perfect for any occasion. With its vibrant colors and nutrient-rich ingredients, it's a salad that is both visually appealing and incredibly delicious.
