Oh this was absolutely amazing. I love beets so anything that dresses them up a bit is just a plus. I used an orange muscat champagne vinegar since I did not have any raspberry vinegar on hand. I served it with a broiled lime-orange zested Pacific Rockfish. Super tasty!

Delicious. However, this makes a TON of salad. I had never worked with beets before and didn't realize how much it would make. It filled an entire 9" casserole dish. I ate it for several nights, but ended up throwing away about 1/3 of it.
