ROASTED BEET SALAD

Ingredients

* 3 to 4 beets, washed

* 2 Tablespoons olive oil

* 1 Tablespoon apple cider vinegar

* 2 teaspoons pure maple syrup

* 1 clove garlic, minced

* 1/4 teaspoon salt

* 1/4 teaspoon pepper

* 4 cups mixed greens

* 1/2 cup crumbled feta or goat cheese

* 1/2 cup candied pecans

Directions

Wrap beets in foil. Bake at 375 degrees for one hour. Remove from foil and let cool. Then peel the skin of the beets with a knife or a vegetable peeler. Cut each beet into 8 wedges.

In a medium bowl combine oil, vinegar, syrup, garlic, salt and pepper. Whisk to combine. Add beets and toss well. Set aside.

In a large bowl add the salad greens. Top with beets, feta and candied pecans. Spoon more of the dressing over the salad.
