How often does your dinner mostly consist of fresh, vibrant produce? The nutrients and fiber found in greens and veggies are vital and delicious! Give this salad a try and add some sliced, grilled chicken breast for added protein. Hopefully this recipe will inspire you to include more veggies and greens in every meal

What you need
Serves 6
  • 3 red beets
  • 3 yellow beets
  • 3 grapefruits
  • 3 mandarin oranges
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ⅛ teaspoon Liquid Stevia
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 6 cups Baby Arugula, fresh
  • ¼ cup pistachios, chopped

Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Trim the beets, wash and place in an 8x8 casserole pan with ¼ cup of water. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for an hour, until tender. Remove from the oven, uncover and cool completely. Peel the beets and slice into wedges.
2. Cut the ends off the grapefruits, and slice off the peel and the white pith. Remove cut into segments and peel the membrane off each slice. Reserve ¼ cup of grapefruit juice.
3. Whisk together the olive oil, stevia, vinegar, sea salt, black pepper and reserved grapefruit juice. Toss the dressing with the beets and grapefruit wedges.
4. Arrange the arugula on a platter. Top with the beet and grapefruit mixture and sprinkle with pistachios.
