Citrus salad with chioggia beet & orange

This colourful salad is just the fresh flavour you need next to the other dishes during a festive dinner or the perfect summer day light lunch to cool off. And can I say that Chioggia beets are just the prettiest veggies out there, the pink and the pattern is so cool.
