Roasted Beet Salad

This colorful and healthy Roasted Beet Salad is packed with nutrients and flavor. Mixed greens, feta cheese, pecans, and roasted beets are drizzled with citrus dressing in this delicious salad!

Serve this salad with Homemade Croutons for added crunch and texture. My Lemon Vinaigrette is perfect for a pop of bright flavor.

Recently, I shared my go-to recipe for roasted beets. They are so delicious, that I knew I wanted to find another way to enjoy them aside from being a side dish. Combining them with a simple baby greens mix, feta cheese and nuts sounded just right. I have been enjoying this salad for lunch every week and I absolutely love it!

Make these delicious Roasted Beets in the oven and serve as a healthy side dish or a salad topping. It’s the easiest way to enjoy this vitamin-packed vegetable!

I am a huge fan of beets and use them often to make my Beet Smoothie or chop the greens and use them in my One Pot Pasta with Sausage and Beet Greens. They are delicious!

Whenever I need an easy vegetable dish, I almost always go the roasted route. I think it is the e asiest and the most tasty way to cook vegetables, aside from soups! Roasting brings out richer flavor in vegetables. When paired well with herbs (dried are better for roasting because fresh ones can burn), you can make a tasty and healthy veggie dish with minimal prep.

Beet Smoothie

Beet Smoothie – a power-drink that’s packed with iron, Vitamins, anti-oxidants and gives your skin a healthy glow.

I make smoothies every day. My Avocado Smoothie is a favorite, along with the Vitamin C Booster Smoothie.

I am about to tell you to throw a raw beet into your blender and turn it into a smoothie. Berries – no problem. Most likely, they are already the basic ingredient in your smoothies. Same for bananas. But beets? Not so much. You may know how good beet juice is for our bodies, but it can be hard to drink. That’s why I created a concoction that is super simple (only 3 ingredients) but makes this smoothie absolutely delicious! The berries and bananas help to mask the earthy taste of beets. As someone that had anemia since my teen years, I drink this smoothie every week. It’s delicious and even the kids love it!
