Beet and Celery Salad

Serves 4-6

This is a crunchy, Russian salad. I found this recipe in an old cookbook and worked with it in order to add in raw ingredients.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound beets, peeled and grated
  • 4 sticks of celery, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons apple juice
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 4 scallions, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons grapeseed oil
  • salt and pepper to taste

Preparation

  1. Mix beets and celery with apple juice.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining ingredients.
  3. Toss the celery/beets with half of the liquids. Then, drizzle the remaining liquid over the salad.
  4. Chill for a couple hours and serve.

Grated beets! I thought I could only juice beets. What a wonderful idea.

This is SO good! I’m eating it after marinating in the fridge for 2 days, and I added some shredded cabbage and an avocado. Wow!

just made this. It’s delicious as expected and a great way to eat celery… I don’t like it much on it’s own and have been looking for ways to eat it more… Yummy!
