Instructions
- Toss together all the ingredients for the salad in a large mixing bowl.
- In a small bowl, whisk together all the ingredients for the dressing.
- Pour the dressing onto the salad, toss together to coat, and serve.
Notes
- Beets: You can use canned and sliced beets instead of fresh. You’ll need 1 (14.5-ounce) can of sliced beets.
- Apples: Red Delicious, Gala, and Honeycrisp are great.
- Media crema: This can be found in the baking or Hispanic aisle of most grocery stores. If you can't find media crema, you can substitute plain yogurt or sweetened condensed milk. If you use sweetened condensed milk, omit the sugar.
