Mediterranean Beet Salad!
Are you ready for a simple recipe with outstanding flavors???
The one thing is that beets can stain your hands temporarily and turn them red, so be sure to continually run your hands over water with some soap.
**And fun fact to help get any stains out is that you can apply a bit of lemon juice to your hands until all stains from the beets have been removed. Or another popular method is to add baking soda and a little water, rub vigorously, then rinse and repeat.
Now without further ado, check out this delicious and refreshing Mediterranean Beet Salad.
