in fruitsandveggiesmonday •  7 years ago 

I am joining FRUITS & VEGGIES MONDAY initiated by @lenasveganliving.

In search for a more naturally way to boost our energy, we decided to go with beets! This is a plate of beet salad my son made for us. Including in this shredded beet is shredded carrot! We used simple olive oil and balsamic vinegar as marinate and top with cilantro sprigs.

This beet soup was another easy one to make. We used whatever beet pieces that we couldn't shred anymore for base, with mince onion and garlic for flavor. Add sliced cabbage and cook until tender.

To complete our meal, beet juice was made with carrot, apple, and ginger pieces! We put the juice in jars for quick grab on the run or just for conveniences.

My sister in Ohio sent over some of her homegrown Asian pears! I love them and they are very good for people with high blood pressure. I like the juiciness and crunchy taste of Asian pears!

I love beet salad and this one sounds a looks marvelous, not to mention the health benefits. Beets are definitely one the a vegetables everyone should eat as often as possible. Shredding them and eating them raw is one of the best way to go, not only because it's easy and quick, but it also tastes super yummy with nice vinaigrette.

Of course the soup is a perfect addition to complete this meal especially for the upcoming cold season. I love soups and I bet this one is delicious and super healthy as well.

Now I would love to try these lovely looking pears, since I am a big pear lover, but I never had the chance to try these yet. Especially being homegrown. That is truly a bonus.

Thank you so much Icy, this is an outstanding entry and it deserves a tip!

Thank you!

Thank you Lena! I love beet too and I need it for energy booster!

How wonderful! Many thanks, Lena!

I love beets! Especially the fresh ones. The soup looks wonderful. What do you use for the broth?

I am having that beet and carrot salad for lunch. It's all your fault! :)

We just used the left over beet pieces that we couldn't shred anymore and cooked them down until there are almost gone! Believe it or not, the broth is naturally sweet enough as broth! My soup's picture didn't turn out as I wanted because by the time I realize it, that was all left :-(

Thanks @dswigle!

Thank you @lenasveganliving and @tipU

Yum! Shredded beets and carrots are perfection together. Great post!

Many thanks @plantstoplanks!

Hi my friend! What a nice entry! Looks so yummy! I like beets so much, the most of the time i make with them a delicious salad or nice smoothie with orange.
Good luck.

I will have to find more recipes to work with beets! Many thanks @creativewoman!

All I can say is yummy!!!! Love beets! My husband doesn't. But beet salads are the best!!

Thank you, and I agree! Beet salad is the best :-)
