Instructions: Boil the beets, in water to cover, for 1 hour or longer or until tender.

While the beets are boiling, combine the vinegar, oil and onion in a mixing bowl and season well with salt and pepper to taste.

When the beets are done, drain them and cool in running water, then cut off their tops and peel. Cut the beets into 1/2-inch dice, toss with the dressing and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Peel, core and cut the apple into 1/2-inch dice.

To serve each portion of salad, center some apple in the middle of the plate and spoon the beets around the apples. Garnish the plate with 3 teaspoons of relish set around the beets.
