MINTED BEET SALAD
We have neighbors who share vegetables from their garden, and every year my husband and I look forward to their beets. My interest in Mediterranean food inspired this beet salad recipe-the vinegar and oil dressing with fresh mint will tone down the sweetness of the beets, and the kalamata olives add a salty touch. -Barbara Estabrook, Appleton, Wisconsin

MINTED BEET SALAD
Steps:
- Wrap the beets together tightly in foil in 2 batches and roast them in the middle of a preheated 350°F. oven for 1 1/2 hours, or until they are tender. The beets may be roasted 2 days in advance and kept covered and chilled. Unwrap the beets carefully and let them cool until they can be handled. Slip the skins off the beets, cut off the stems, and cut the beets into 1/4-inch pieces. In a large bowl whisk together the vinegars, the sugar, and salt to taste, add the oil in a stream, whisking, and whisk the dressing until it is emulsified. Add the beets to the bowl with two thirds of the mint and toss the salad until it is combined well. Line 4 plates with the lettuce leaves, divide the beet mixture among them, and sprinkle each salad with some of the remaining mint.
BEET SALAD WITH RED ONION, MINT AND PISTACHIOS
From Clean Start: Inspiring You to Eat Clean and Live well as found on the relish.com website. This made for a delicious main dish meal last night. If you don't have the beet greens, go ahead and substitute other greens: heirloom lettuce, arugula, watercress, m^ache, red loose leaf, etc.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Preparing the beets: Cut off the greens and set aside.
- Place the beets in an ovenproof dish and add enough water to cover the bottom.
- Cover with foil and bake 1 hour or until they pierce easily with a knife.
- Remove beets from the oven and allow to cool.
- Peel and discard the skins (depending on how young the beets are I sometimes skip the peeling part). Cut them into wedges or slices. *Remember*: Keep the red beets separate from the golden beets to avoid the red beets bleeding.
- Drizzle 1/2 teaspoon of sherry vinegar on the red beets and the other one half teaspoon on the golden beets. Toss to coat and set aside.
- (Read *Note below before starting this step.) Assembling the salad: Wash well and coarsely chop the beet greens. Place in a colander.
- Slice the red onions into thin rounds and place on top of the greens.
- Boil 1 cup of water then pour over the beets and onions. Drain well and pat dry.
- Transfer to a bowl and stir in the mint and beets.
- Drizzle the vegetables with the remaining 1 teaspoon of sherry vinegar and the olive oil.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper; toss.
- Garnish with the pistachios.
- *Note: the photo that accompanied this recipe on the relish.com site shows the vegetables all arranged on a platter in their own little mounds and the ingredients were not tossed together. I chose to serve the salad with each ingredient placed in mounds for a more beautiful presentation. The nuts were of course scattered on top of the salad.
BEET SALAD WITH MASCARPONE AND MINT
This recipe dresses up a potentially mundane vegetable by using the beets in two ways: raw and roasted. It also includes a simple sauce that brings out the flavor of the beets without overpowering it.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 F. Trim the beet stems, then rub the beets with some of the oil and season with salt. Wrap the red and yellow beets separately in aluminum foil and roast on a sheet tray until a knife is easily inserted into the center of the beet, about 45 minutes. Remove the foil and allow them to cool.
- In a small bowl, mix the mascarpone with the lemon zest and 3 tablespoons lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper.
- Keeping the yellow and red beets in separate bowls, peel and cut them into bite-sized wedges.
- Dividing evenly, dress the beets with olive oil and the remaining tablespoon of lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper. Slice the larger leaves from the mint sprigs and set them aside. Using a Japanese mandoline, slice the raw candy cane beet into very thin slices.
- Make a bed of the mascarpone on a plate and arrange the yellow and red beet salads on top. Top with the mint and candy cane beets before serving.
