I got the idea for this recipe from my daughter-in-law who had tried a beet and pea salad at an organic food co-op. She was sure the beets had been pickled and the dressing was made with mayonnaise. She thought the salad included cabbage, but I decided to keep the recipe very simple. It was a major hit with my husband who hates beets.
Ingredients
- 1 (15 ounce) can beets, drained
- 1 pound frozen petite peas
- ½ cup finely chopped red onion
- 1 cup vegan mayonnaise (such as Vegenaise®)
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
Directions
Step 1
Dice or julienne pickled beets. Toss with peas and onion in a bowl.
Step 2
Combine vegan mayonnaise and onion powder in a separate bowl. Stir into beet mixture.
Step 3
Chill to let flavors blend, about 1 hour. Serve.
Cook’s Note:
Be sure to use Vegenaise(R). The slight tartness of Vegenaise(R) balances the sweetness of the beets and peas.
