This Foodie Friday, I’m sharing a recipe for one of my favorite beet salads. Beets are high in immune-boosting vitamin C, fiber, and essential minerals like potassium and manganese; the list of nutritional benefits goes on and on!. Thank you Luci for this simple, healthy, refreshing salad recipe that is oh so pretty.
