Grandma Beet and carrot salad

My grandmother prepares this salad during the year at least once a week. it is very simple, healthy and full of good memories for me. Although  I change the preparation and cooking time, the flavors and seasonings are coming from my grandmother like most of my recipes. This salad goes really well with chicken or beef stews.


You need:
  • 5 Carrots
  • 5 beets
Vinaigrette:
  • 1/2 cup chopped cilantro and parsley
  • 3 tablespoon of lemon or lime juice
  • 3 minced garlic cloves
  • 3 tablespoon of Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper as much as you want
What to do next:
  • Turn the oven to 400
  • Wash the vegetables and dry them - take a fork and make some indentation on the veggies
  • Get these in the oven for 45 minutes 
  • Peel the carrot and beets and cut them in bite sizes
  • Get a bowl and mix the vinaigrette ingredients
  • Take all the veggies and mixed nicely, let the salad take the flavors for 30 minutes before serving.
