Roasted Beet Salad

This Roasted Beet Salad is make with just a few simple ingredients.  It makes a wonderful new side dish to add to any Summer menu.

We were eating at a restaurant a couple of weeks ago at the beach in Massachusetts.  One of the only healthy side dishes on the menu happened to be Roasted Beet Salad.  Curious, I asked the waitress how it was prepared and she said it was simply beets and red onions in a vinaigrette.

I have never been a huge beet lover but I’m so happy I was bold enough to try their version because it is amazing!!

All you have to do is slice up a few roasted beets and red onion (I used a mandolin slicer for easy slicing) and let it marinade a little in red wine vinegar and olive oil with a little seasoning.

For my first time making this, I decided to buy already cooked beets because I was impatient.  But it is very easy to make you own Roasted Beets

How to Make Beet Salad

Remove ends from the roasted beets and peel off the skin.

Slice beets into 1/4 inch slice and place in a serving bowl.

Add red onion slice.

In a separate small bowl, whisk together olive oil, vinegar, basil and pepper.

Marinate for at least an hour at room temperature.

ENJOY!!
