20 MinWhen coming up with salads take an everything but the kitchen sink approach. For the salad pictured here we came up with the theme, “red.” So we added beets, tomatoes, red peppers, red olives, red wine vinegar. The result is a flavorful salad that is like the vegetable version of the red velvet cake!

- 2 cups of ready-to-serve (cleaned and rinsed) raw spinach
- 1/2 cup shredded beets

- 2 tablespoons garbanzo beans
- 1/4 cup whole red olives
- 1/4 cup roasted red peppers
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1/2 tsp olive oil
- dash red pepper flakes
Instructions

- Chef's Tips: Use a grater to shred the raw beets. To avoid staining a counter or cutting board make sure you have a paper towel under the grater.
