Beets, Arugula & Grapefruit Salad

Sometimes the simplest combinations hit the hardest.

Peppery arugula, sweet earthy beets, and bright grapefruit segments create a salad that’s as gorgeous as it is refreshing.

This is a true “combine and serve” recipe, which means dinner’s side dish is ready before you finish setting the table.

The bitter edge of grapefruit plays off the natural sweetness of beets while arugula adds that spicy backbone that ties it all together.

Pro Tips

• Dress it up: A drizzle of good olive oil and a pinch of flaky sea salt will take this from simple to sophisticated.
• Go fresh when you can. Swap canned beets for roasted ones if you have the time. The depth of flavor is worth it.
• Add crumbled goat cheese or toasted walnuts for a heartier version that works as a light main course.
