Ingredients

Scale

Instructions

  1. Wash and peel the beets. Grate them using a box grater or food processor.
  2. Shred the carrots until fine.

  5. Drizzle with olive oil, add lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
  6. Toss gently until well mixed.
  7. Serve immediately in bowls or on plates; optionally garnish with additional apple slices or nuts.

Notes

  • Wear gloves when handling beets to avoid staining hands.
  • Use a box grater for quicker preparation of beets and carrots.
  • Drizzle lemon juice on apples immediately after cutting to prevent browning.
  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.
  • It’s best enjoyed fresh to keep that delightful crunch intact.
