BEET AND ARUGULA SALAD WITH BERRIES



Beet and Arugula Salad With Berries image

Berries and beets: a salad of dark green, blue and purple hues if there ever was one. I threw this together because I had these ingredients on hand - beets that I'd roasted several days earlier, arugula that was bolting in my garden, and berries from the market - and it worked. The sweet-tart flavor of the berries contrasts beautifully with the earthy sweetness of the beets and the pungent arugula.

BEET, ORANGE AND ARUGULA SALAD



Beet, Orange and Arugula Salad image

The oranges in this sweet and pungent salad will look like blood oranges after they sit for a little while with the beets. This makes a pretty Christmas salad. Try to find the wispy wild arugula, which is more pungent than regular arugula.
