Avocado Beet Salad

November 28, 2018 by mgrc Leave a Comment

Your guests will be surprised to find that the pretty jelled filling in this avocado salad is pureed beet. It is easy to make for a party if you prepare the beet filling the night before.
You must make the beet filling in advance. Serve leftover beet filling on lettuce topped with sliced green onions and a dollop of sour cream.
