Ginger Beet Power Salad

March 1, 2017Holly Rodricks

Last week both our very own Allan, along with Dave from Food and Ferments, mentioned that they’d been wanting to try to make a dressing out of F&F’s Ginger Beets. Of course, I stole their idea and ran with it – and once you have a dressing, you need a salad to keep it company! Expect a combo of sweet and tangy flavors, supported by hardy greens and protein-packed eggs. As always, I make my kitchen creations to suit my taste, but don’t be afraid to experiment to make them fit yours!
