This big salad is a feast for the eyes and an everyday way to incorporate nutrient-rich beets and plant-based protein from edamame. If you're not a fan of cilantro, mix in freshly chopped basil or dill instead.

Prep/Cook Time: 15 Minutes, Servings: 1

Ingredients

  • 2 cups mixed salad greens
  • 1 cup shelled edamame, thawed
  • ½ medium raw beet, peeled and shredded (about ½ cup)
  • 1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar plus 1½ teaspoons
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
  • 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 Pinch kosher salt
  • 1 Pinch freshly ground pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Arrange greens, edamame and beet on a large plate. Whisk vinegar, cilantro, oil, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Drizzle over the salad and enjoy.
