Roasted Beet & Feta Salad

Roasted Beet & Feta Salad

Beets are delicious and earthy and can be enjoyed in so many different ways. I like to grate them raw, pickle them and roast them simply with Oil, Salt & Pepper. Roasting them really brings out this amazing sweetness to them. The roasted Beets paired with the saltiness of the Feta and the sweet tanginess of the Balsamic Vinaigrette makes the perfect Salad.
