Clementines are part of the mandarin-orange family. These tiny treats are about two-inches in diameter, easy to peel and typically seedless. They’re in season now!

I love pickling my own vegetables. It’s fast and super easy. I used canned beets for this recipe but roasting your own beets is wonderful too!

You can use any kind of vinegar to change up the flavors. I prefer a white balsamic for roasted or canned veggies and apple cider vinegar for raw veggies like cucumbers.

This salad is my new favorite for a Thanksgiving or Christmas table. The colors fit in for and theme. Win, win!
