Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon pine nuts
  • ½ cup grated beets (½ cup is 2 ½ - 3oz approx, 70-85g beetroot)

  • 2 handfuls arugula (rocket)

For maple vinaigrette

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup

Instructions

  • Gently toast the pine nuts in a dry skillet/frying pan or under a broiler/grill. Keep a close eye on them so they don't burn then set aside.
  • Grate the beet and core and slice the apple. 
  • Put the arugula in the bottom of a bowl, top with the grated beet, apple and pine nuts. 
  • Shake together the vinaigrette ingredients (oil, vinegar and maple syrup) in a small jar or whisk in a small bowl. Drizzle over the salad, toss and serve.
