How to Make Earthy Beet and Parsnip Ribbon Salad with Pineapple Vinaigrette

1. Prepare the Pineapple Dressing

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of pineapple juice, 1/3 cup of red wine vinegar, 1/4 cup of grapeseed oil, 2 tablespoons of pure maple syrup, 1 finely grated clove of garlic, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt until well combined.

2. Combine Vegetables with Dressing

Add the peeled and shredded beets and parsnips to the bowl with the dressing. Use tongs to toss everything together, ensuring the vegetables are well-coated.

3. Macerate Vegetables

Allow the dressed vegetables to sit for about 15 minutes to soften and absorb the dressing.

4. Add Fresh Mint

After 15 minutes, add the 1/2 cup of coarsely chopped fresh mint to the salad and toss again to distribute the mint evenly.

5. Chill the Salad

Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate the salad for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to develop.
