I was pretty excited about this and was super pleased with how it turned out. My very own creation!
Salad
1 lb beets, roasted peeled and diced
1 can or about 2 cups of chick peas
1/4 red onion minced
2 Tbsp fresh chopped mint
Dressing
3 Tbsp olive oil
3 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 clove of garlic pushed through garlic press
Assemble salad, toss with dressing. Enjoy!
I served it with baked sweet potatoes and fresh whole wheat bread (King Arthur’s easy no-knead version). In retrospect it was a lot of sweetness. Next time I’ll serve it with broccoli or something. Oh, I also used multi-colored beets so it wasn’t such a beet red extravaganza. I was worried it would look bland, but it still was pleasing to the eye.

That looks really yummy. I'm going to try it soon. Thanks.
