Beet Carpaccio

Hello everyone!

I’m very happy to share this dish with you. This is the kind of recipe that’s a life-saver whenever you have guests coming over because you can cook the beets and make the vinaigrette the day before, forget about it and just serve it the next day. Also, it is the perfect appetizer for any protein-based main course like fish, salmon, beef etc.. I added Marcona almonds but you can sub for any toasted nut like pecans or pistachio.
