Sunburst spinach salad with grated beets, toasted pecans, and couscous

The Garden of Eating
Grated beets, carrots, tangerines, and crunchy pecans on a bed of baby spinach is a sweet and crunchy break from too many holiday desserts. Add coucous or another grain to make the salad more substantial.

Amounts vary based on how much you want to make
 
Baby spinach, washed and dried

Beet, peeled and grated

Carrot, peeled and grated

Pecans or walnuts, toasted

Dried currants, raisins, cherries or cranberries

Tangerine or orange, peeled and sliced

Vinaigrette (I used a simple balsamic one)

Couscous, farro, or quinoa, cooked and cooled

Lay down a thick bed of baby spinach, top with couscous or other grain, layer on the grated carrot and beet, and top with the toasted nuts and sliced citrus. Drizzle with your favorite vinaigrette and dig in.
