Kraft Kitchens Tips

Substitute

Substitute PLANTERS Pecan Halves for the walnuts.

Preventing Beet Stains

When handling cooked or canned beets, it's easy to stain your hands and cutting board from the juices. To prevent this, wear disposable latex gloves and cut beets on a large glass or ceramic plate rather than a cutting board.

Wonderful! A nice, light salad. We prefer to use mandarin oranges as they are just a bit sweeter for my family. In my opinion, make a duoble batch as everyone always asks for more!

I make this all the time. I use mandrin oranges. My family loves it even the ones that don't usually eat beets. Sometimes I use pickled beets instead.

Very simple, nice blend of flavors. Used clementines.

This salad is just perfect...what a great way to use both spinach and beets. Healthy...wow ! I did use the pecans rather than the walnuts.
