Summer Beetroot Salad

One of the most delicious ways to use the freshly picked PEACE farm  vegetables on a warm early summers day is in a salad and this is my current favorite recipe. I can sneak in some Japanese turnips too which I sometimes find hard to use. The colours are so vibrant and the taste is sweet and refreshing. I make mine in my thermomix which is as easy as putting in all the ingredients and chopping on speed 5 for about 5 secs. If you don't have a thermi the very easy alternate method is below.

Ingredients 

2-3 beetroots, peeled 

1 large or 2 medium carrots 

1-2 jap turnips or radish 

1 small red onion

A small lemon

Handful of mint leaves 

Sesame seeds to garnish

Olive oil 

Method

Grate the beets, carrots and japanese turnips into a salad bowl. Dice the onion and add. Finely chop the mint and add. Drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice.  Mix well. Sprinkle with sesame seeds garnish.

Enjoy!
