This is another salad that I made for our potluck lunch 2 weeks ago.
Raizel is still in love with cumin, so I thought I would experiment with this.
Ingredients
Beets, cooked and sliced
Onion, sliced thinly.
Alternative: scallions, fresh mint or cilantro
Dressing
1/2 cup lemon juice
2 tablespoons oil
2 teaspoons paprika
2 teaspoons cumin
Salt and pepper to taste. I think I added 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
Place beets and onions in bowl.
Whisk together lemon juice, oil, paprika, cumin, salt and pepper and pour over vegetables. Garnish as desired with fresh herbs.
Everyone loved it and there was barely any leftover. A good sign.
Bon appetite!
It’s been ages since I ate, nay, saw a beetroot!

They are very common in Eastern European cooking. I love their color and traditionally root vegetables were the only vegetables available during the wintertime.

It is surprisingly good. Raizel, however, seems to like EVERYTHING with cumin these days. She has very sophisticated taste!
