I love hosting friends and family for backyard gatherings but meal planning for the food is my least favorite part.  I always wonder what people will enjoy.  For this reason I use these gatherings as the perfect testing for new recipes.  A side slaw salad is a must on a hot summer day, especially when it is crisp, fresh and cold but some people do not like the traditional cabbage slaw so I decided to use the NEW Green Giant Beets Veggie Spirals as the base for our next slaw recipe.

Delicious side salad that is so colorful for summer too!  I love the addition of the mason jars too, just another way to bring the summer fun to your backyard gathering.  My guests really enjoyed this slaw recipe and so many people never thought of using beets which honestly I never did either.  Beets are great in pasta dishes but are also great chilled.  Green Giant makes it so easy to enjoy beets.  Yummy!!
