I made roasted beet salad for dinner tonight. With homemade salad dressing. It was pretty good, not super great, but I do like the salad dressing a lot.
I used Michael Chiarello's recipe on Food Network. So there's a ton of prep work, but still, the outcome was pretty good. Good enough that Shawn said he liked it. Actually liked it. Beet Salad. Amazing.
Since I have like 20 more beets to go, I'm guessing we'll be eating this a couple times this week.
So, let's see, all the things used from the garden:
Beets + tops
Onion
Pea Pods
Things bought at the store specifically for this:
Spinach
Bleu Cheese
Orange Juice
And I already had lemon juice, salt, pepper and olive oil on hand. So, all in all, not too bad. And it means we ate healthy for once. Go health food!

sounds good! You are great to cook on a Friday night.
I thought I didn't like beets as a kid because I couldn't stand those pickled beets. But borsht and salads and other cooked items are delicious!!
