Golden Beet and Arugula Salad with Fried Apples

March 2, 2021 Easy Meals, Food + Recipes, Uncategorized

This delicious recipe is brought to you in partnership with Zwilling USA Thank you for supporting the brands that support RosalynnDaniels.com

If you’re looking for an easy way to cook beets and a delicious way to eat them, then you’re in the right place. Beets are one of those foods that I ignorantly resisted in my younger years. But, after giving them a try in so many dishes and especially now that I am aware of its nutritional value, I find any excuse to eat this vegetable, any chance I get.

My favorite way to prepare beets is to use them in my Golden Beet and Arugula Salad with Fried Apples. In this post, I’m going to show you my easy method to roast beets and how to assemble this mouthwatering salad. After learning this simple roasting technique, you’ll be able to easily enjoy beets whenever your heart desires. Especially if you use Fresh and Save Food Vacuum to store them after roasting.

Using Fresh and Save for Meal Prep

I started using Zwilling’s new Fresh and Save when I started noticing that my hard work from meal prep was going down the drain because my food wasn’t lasting the whole week. I was finding myself having a mid-week meal prep in addition to my Sunday mp, and it just started to become discouraging. When I found out my friends at Zwilling were coming out with a new food vacuum product, I knew I would be getting one asap. Here are some reasons why, I am SO loving this Fresh and Save:

  • My food can last 5x longer. It’s not just with fruits and veggies, but I use it to extend the amount of time that I can enjoy my fish and meats as well.
  • There is a QR Code on the containers and bags so that you can keep track of when you vacuum sealed it.
  • Their starter kit gives you options, so you can either use their plastic bags or containers, which come in glass or plastic. You will have both bags and containers in your starter kit.
  • I enjoy using their reusable bags to store in my freezer long term.
  • I use the containers for my everyday use.

Eat more beets

My beet obsession actually began some years ago, when I had my first beet salad. It was at one of my favorite restaurants in the Atlanta area called Canoe, and they served a stack of roasted beets with blue cheese, walnuts, and balsamic. Pretty much the bare bones version of my recipe.

It was so delicious that I became obsessed. To this day, I still order beets whenever I see them on a menu. However, recently I’ve become more obsessed because of all the awesome health benefits they offer.

  • They increase energy levels. For me, this is great because I’m trying to lower my caffeine intake.
  • They offer a great blood detoxification.
  • They offer a high source of fiber.

The Recipe

For this recipe, you will need to roast your beets. My best advice is to follow the simple directions below. Once you put them in the oven, just let them do all the work.

Once the beets are roasted, you should be able to easily peel off the skin. Use the tip of your fingernail to help guide it off.
