😉 So after that happy and busy weekend, I want this salad again because I know this will once again make me feel energized and happy.

Why so? Because it is the ‘Iron-Man’ of salads. It has so much raw power. It has everything I love. I love beets, I love cranberries, I love pomegranate arils and I also love potatoes. So you can clearly see that I am way too excited about this pretty salad. Seriously, Beetroot is one of my favorite things and that is why I always keep them in stock.

I am usually not so obsessed with a salad but oh boy, this salad is an exception. This salad doesn’t feel like a salad, it feels and tastes like some elegant gourmet food. So if I talk about only this salad then I can tell that my salad obsession is at the peak. Almonds, cranberries, pomegranate, and beets. What’s not to love here? Sweet, tart and little spicy. Just my kinda salad!

Making this holiday salad is very simple, satisfying and delicious. Once you’ve made it, you would want to make it on weekly basis.

Here’s how it’s made. It’s simple and easy.

What are Pro Tips and Tricks for making Beet Salad Recipe?

Making this beet potato salad is fairly simple. However, if you have never worked with beets before then there are a few things one should keep in mind before making this holiday beet potato salad.

1. Always use cool beets when preparing salads, this way it would be easier to toss the salad with the dressings. Also, it would stay fresh longer. 

2. If stored covered in an air-tight container, this salad will stay fresh for a couple of days in the fridge.

3. You can make this salad a day before you are planning to serve it. This way it would absorb the flavors, and it tastes more delicious and creamier.

4. Don’t peel beets before roasting and cooling. Once the beet is roasted and cooled, it would be easier to peel them. The skin would slide off without any efforts. 

5. For a hearty variation, you can also add some boiled chickpeas or cooked quinoa to the salad.
