Instructions

Lay a piece of parchment paper over your cutting board and slice (or use a crinkle cutter) cooked beets into 1/4-inch pieces. Set aside in medium bowl. Discard parchment paper.
Slice the celery on the diagonal into 1/4-inch pieces and add to beets. Remove the mint and dill from the stems and chop fine, add to beets. Chop the walnuts into dice and add to beets.
In small bowl mix together the dressing ingredients and pour over beet salad, tossing to coat and chill for 30 minutes covered. Toss once more before serving.

Notes

I prefer to buy them already cooked, Love Beets™ Cooked Beets is the brand I most often find now in most markets vegetable section.
