Beets Salad

Beets are an old root vegetable that can be served cold or hot. They also come in many varieties such as red and orange. My Beets salad recipe is for fresh beets which to me are so much better tasting than canned or frozen. You can use what you like.

Ingredients;
1LB fresh or 12oz can red or orange beets or mixed
5-6 slices of red onion
1 TSP minced parsley
2 TBLS extra virgin olive oil
Pepper to taste
Splash of red wine vinegar

Directions;
If you are using fresh beets place them in a pot with water covering them and simmer until fork tender. Let cool and peel and slice them. If canned, rinse beets in cold water.
Add the balance of ingredients and mix. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
