Steps:
- Place beets in a pot, cover with lightly salted water, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce to a simmer and cook until beets are soft, 30 to 40 minutes. Drain and cool until easily handled. Peel and cube.
- Place beets in a large bowl and add jicama, tejocotes, guava, oranges, and sweet limes; mix well and sweeten with sugar. Pour in orange juice, mix again, and sprinkle with peanuts. Allow salad to sit for about 10 minutes so flavors can blend.
- Garnish with colaciones just before serving so they don't soften.
