Beet Carrot Salad with Tangy Lime Vinaigrette

Many people don’t realize that beets are delicious uncooked. The crunchy texture and earthy flavor is unique and refreshing. One of our favorite sides, this recipe combines raw beets and raw carrots for a wonderfully crunchy salad, and the zesty vinaigrette brings everything together with elegance. For added texture, top with toasted pepitas. Your taste buds will thank you.
