Nice change
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

This was pretty good but I think I'll serve it with arugla or spinach next time.

Excellent combination
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I have been looking for something to do with beets because my mother loves them. Beets by themselves can be somewhat boring... so this was a delightful combination of flavors, my mother really enjoyed the salad.Read more

Makes a great addition to Spinach/Lettuce salad
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

My husband loves beets but wasn't very fond of this recipe. The next night I mixed it into our spinach and lettuce salad and... that made it a keeper. The juices make an excellent dressing and the beets & mardarin oranges make the salad different. I will make this again.Read more

Delicious!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I was looking for a way to use the can of shoestring beets that I had in my cabinet and happened to see Robin using them in... this salad last weekend. It actually turned out better than I thought it would! I made it for myself for lunch - my husband and kids wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole! The dijon in the dressing gives the sweet oranges and beets a nice bite!! I let it sit overnight to let the flavors mingle, instead of draining the dressing and serving it right away like Robin did in the show. A little salt and black pepper and I had a great tasting low-fat and calorie salad!!Read more
