Yummy Beet Salad

Serves 4

• 6 golden beets
• 1/2 cup pecans
• 4 cups greens
• 2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice
• 2 Tbsp. good olive oil
• 1 tsp. fresh herbs, such as dill

Wash beets, cut off the head & tail and steam until tender, about 20 minutes. Let cool. Toast pecans in a skillet, stirring frequently, until fragrant. Mix together lime juice, olive oil and herbs. Peel beets and cut into matchsticks. Toss with a little of the dressing. Let stand anywhere from 10 minutes to two days (refrigerated, of course!). To serve, mix together beets, pecans and dressing.
