Different, delightful low cal salad. Very tasty & crunchy. I served this as a side dish with baked scallops and dilled carrots and new potatoes- No complaints, except from me getting the beet juice off my hands. Another winner Dancer. What I love is that no-one would guess it is Low calorie! Thanks
