Beet, Feta And Granny Smith Apple Salad

• 5 -6 medium beets, about 1 1/2 lbs
• 1/2 small red onion, chopped
• 2 granny smith apples, cored and thinly sliced
• 3/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
• 1 shallot, minced
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon prepared horseradish
• 1 1/2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
• 1/4 teaspoon celery seed
• 2 tablespoons canola oil
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• fresh ground pepper
• 1/3 cup scallion, chopped
• 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped

1. Wash the beets, but do not peel.
2. Place in a very deep pot and cover with cold water until floating. Bring to a boil, cut back to a simmer and cook for about 40 minutes or until tender when pierced with a sharp knife. Note - Beets can be a bit messy and stain terribly. By using a very deep pot you won't have as much splattering.
3. While the beets are cooking, make the salad dressing by combining the ingredients above starting with the shallot and ending with the freshly ground pepper. Shake well.
4. Chop the red onion, slice the green apple, place them in a large bowl and toss with the salad dressing and the feta cheese.
5. When beets are done, cool, peel, cut in half and then slice thinly.
6. Toss with the apples, onion and cheese mixture.
7. Garnish with the scallions and dill.
8. Enjoy!
