Roasted Beet Salad with feta and grapes is my recipe of the day. It’s inspired by a recipe by Anthony Bourdain which uses slices of fresh orange.

My beets were red (purple) and I wasn’t interested in staining my oranges. So I switched out for seedless grapes and used an orange vinaigrette to cover that aspect.
Topped with a touch of salty feta to counter the sweetness of a citrus dressing, it makes for a very simple salad. You could add some baby lettuce underneath if you like. I enjoyed it as is.
Roasted Beet Salad
I used prepackaged roasted beets from the produce section in this. But feel free to roast your own from raw. Or open a can of beets and take what you need.
If you do get them fresh and raw, be sure to use the green tops very soon. I have a recipe below that shows how you can use those without wasting them.
I also have a few other beet recipes, since beets are a common autumn vegetable that can be used in many ways.
