Venture to your farmers market and get creative with your salad ingredients; add what you like, but be sure to buy the freshest locally grown produce. Buy a spiralizer (
available here on Amazon) and open up a whole new world of eating fresh vegetables. Be sure to wear disposable gloves (or wash your hands immediately) when peeling and spiralizing red beets. Spiralized or just sliced, beets and carrots are versatile and can be eaten raw, roasted, boiled, or marinated (as I do) in this salad.
