Beet salad- basic recipe ( adjust all measurements to taste)

2 beets about 2 inches in diameter peeled and grated in a food processor

1  teaspoon salt, more or less to taste

¼ teaspoon fennel seeds, crushed between your fingers

2 teaspoons fresh squeezed lemon juice

½ teaspoon cumin

1 tablespoon  olive oil

2 tablespoons honey

Mix together and store in the refrigerator.  The beets become a bit softer as they sit

Variations:

Crumbled feta

Kalamata and  Cerignola olives

Fresh mint

Chives

Orange segments

Pickled eggs ( I’ll give the pickled eggs recipe later this week)

Aged provolone  cheese ( make a frico by grating the provolone onto a sheet pan lined with parchment paper.  I cracked black pepper over it and baked at 400 degrees for 5-6 minutes until just lightly browned.  It will be pliable for a few seconds so you can bend it into shapes)
