*Lemony Beet & Onion Salad*

3 medium beets, scrubbed, greens removed
4 small carrots
½ red or white onion, thinly sliced
3 tbsp apple cider vinegar
2 tbsp lemon juice
Zest of 1 lemon, about 1 tsp
1 tsp dried rosemary, or 1 tbsp fresh
2½ tbsp neutral oil, divided
½ tsp sea salt
Black pepper to taste

1. Preheat oven to 425F. Wrap each beet individually in aluminum foil, rap all the carrots in a single large sheet of foil and place on a baking sheet. Roast for 30 to 60 minutes (time will vary depending on size of beets) until a knife inserted into the beet goes through smoothly.
2. Remove the foil and let beets and carrots rest until cool enough to handle. Using a paper towel, or just your hands, rub the beets until the skin comes off (it should slide off easily)
3. Cut the beets into thin coins, slices or juliennes, and place in a large bowl.
4. Meanwhile, heat 1½ tbsp of oil in a small frying pan over medium heat. Add the rosemary and cook for about 3 minutes until it becomes fragrant.
5. Pour the warm oil over the beets through a sieve to catch the rosemary. Add the onion, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice & zest, salt and pepper (plus additional 1 tbsp of oil if desired) and toss to combine. Transfer to a serving bowl.
6. Refrigerate for a few hours or up to overnight (which is best!)

*Curried Chickpea Salad*

2½ to 3 cups canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
½ large white or yellow onion, finely diced
1 large crisp apple, diced
1 celery stalk, finely diced
1 medium carrot, grated
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup vegan mayo
1 tbsp lemon juice
1½ tbsp curry powder
1½ tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp dijon mustard
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper

1. In a small bowl whisk together the mayo, lemon juice, garlic, curry powder, maple syrup, dijon mustard, salt and pepper until combined into a thick dressing. Set aside to chill while you prepare the other ingredients.
2. To a large mixing bowl combine the chickpeas, onion, apple, celery, and carrot. Pour over the dressing and mix again to combine. Enjoy right away or serve chilled, is great in wraps and sandwiches too!
