Honey Tips

How Honey is Made

To make honey, bees drop the collected nectar into the honeycomb and then evaporate it by fanning their wings.

Directions

Combine first 5 ingredients in blender and puree. Set aside.
Add beets to boiling water and cook for 20 minutes or until tender. Allow to cool then slice into eighths.
While beets are cooking, place mushrooms in a small baking dish and bake at 350° for 20 minutes or until tender. Allow mushrooms to cool, then cut into 1/2 inch slices.
Place mixed greens in a large bowl. Add walnuts, beets, and mushrooms. Top with puree and sliced basil, toss until well coated.
