Difficulty level: Easy (could manage after overnight call)
Note: I wrote this post back in early November, when it made more sense to talk about pumpkins being in season. Several side projects distracted me from posting. The prospect of trying to rework this blog to fit a holiday theme (it could work! The salad has that red-and-green — if we consider magenta to be a shade of red — look) nearly made me abandon posting it. But as mentioned later, I took far too long to put this up, even though it ought to have been one of my earliest posts. Then I decided that since I’m not a professional blogger, but a hobbyist, that the post could go up as is, since there’s no reason at all that anyone besides myself should be concerned that it’s coming out a few weeks late. And even though it’s December, my grocery store still has pretty good beets, so you haven’t missed out much anyway – find some and make this salad!
