Beets don’t always get the love they deserve. Mention them at dinner and someone inevitably makes a face, flashbacks of mushy purple cubes from childhood included. But here’s the plot twist: raw beets are a whole different story. Crunchy, bright, slightly sweet, and way less “earthy garden vibes” than their roasted cousins. Toss them with crisp apples and sweet carrots, hit everything with fresh lemon juice, and suddenly you’ve got a salad that disappears fast. Yes, even with kids at the table—my daughter grabbed a fork mid-prep and went back for seconds. No joke.
