This big salad is a feast for the eyes and an everyday way to incorporate nutrient-rich beets and plant-based protein from edamame (green soybeans). If you're not a fan of cilantro, mix in freshly chopped basil or dill instead.

My husband and I both thought this salad was terrible. It was bland and screamed "DIET!" I was hungry but couldn't finish it because it was like eating a shrub. Won't make again. Read More

Boring boring boring salad. I ignored the dressing instructions since the vinegar to oil ratio seemed way off. Read More

I liked it. My husband would prefer it with a sweeter salad dressing. Didn't think I would like raw beets but they are good. Read More
