Roasting beets is very simple and chilled, they are a great addition to summer salads. You can make a big batch of roasted beets and then have them ready for salads all week long. I use both the golden beets and the red beets often. This salad is so simple and you really can me it any way you want. Use whatever veggies you have on hand.

Oh that sounds good except for one odd thing. Lately I find beets too sweet for me! I guess as problems go that is not so bad, but I do enjoy them. Er, did, I guess…
