Beets are naturally high in sugar and the canned versions are both soft and have enough salt to make them a delicious base for a simple salad dressing. Note that this salad calls for a beet as part of the veg as well, so set aside enough for your salad before chopping what you need for your dressing.
Ingredients
Dressing:
- ½ cup finely chopped canned beets
- 1½ tsp. Dijon mustard
- 1½ tsp. apple cider vinegar
- 4 Tbsp. low-sodium vegetable broth
- 1 Tbsp. olive oil
Salad:
- ⅓ cup green beans
- 3 cups baby spinach
- 2 endives, thinly sliced
- 2 Tbsp. sweet onion, thinly sliced
- 1 small canned beet, sliced
Directions
- Combine all dressing ingredients in a food processor or blender and process until smooth.
- Bring a small pan of water to a boil. Add green beans and cook until just tender (2 minutes). Drain and run under cold water immediately to stop cooking process.
- Toss salad ingredients together and serve with dressing on the side.
