Beet Slaw with Peanut Dressing and Vine-Dried Grapes

This fresh and healthy summer salad is perfect for a light lunch or side for a bigger meal.
Ingredients
  • Handful of spinach or preferred greens
  • 1 1/4 pounds beets, peeled
  • 1/2 cup Classic Vine-Dried Grapes 
  • 1/4 cup of nuts and try our friends @sante_nuts
  • 1/4 cup lightly packed mint leaves
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried chili flakes
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Extra-virgin olive oil
  • Peanut Dressing

Instructions

  1. Grate the beets on the large holes of a box grater or cut into fine julienne.
  2. Add the beets and mint (save the rest for garnishing), Classic Vine-Dried Grapes and chili flakes. Season with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and lots of black pepper and toss.
  3. Let it sit for about 5 minutes. Taste the mixture—the slaw should be tart, spicy, peppery, and sweet. Adjust the seasoning, if necessary, then add 1/4 cup olive oil. Toss and taste again.
  4. Spread a layer of greens on the bottom of a plate or bowl and top with beet mixture. 
  5. Finish with the reserved fresh mint and a drizzle of peanut dressing.

Protein packed and a new twist on traditional beet salads. You can keep the beet mixture in the fridge up to a week.
