Beets are not only super nutritious, they taste great too! Especially in this scrumptious oven-roasted red beet salad. You’ll be licking your plate clean. Recently, I discovered there are two kinds of people. Those that love beets, and those that absolutely despise them. This was news to me. How could someone not like beets?
They’re crunchy, mildly sweet, beautifully red, and packed full of nutrients like fiber, folate, potassium, iron, and Vitamin C. So of course, I needed to put up a recipe on my site that would appeal even to those that weren’t too fond of beets. Maybe this could be a gateway recipe to a world of beets. Hmm.
And I knew exactly which recipe to share:
