Roasted Baby Beets with Salad and Feta Cheese
The very best things sometimes are the simplest of it all and this recipe is exactly that. Roasted beets, butter lettuce, feta cheese tossed with oil and vinegar. Simplicity at it’s best. I love the refreshing taste of beets in the spring and summer. Perfect for Mother’s Day brunch, lunch or dinner too. This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License.
