Roasted Beet Salad

Recipe courtesy Paula Deen
  • Level: Easy

  • Yield: 6 to 8 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 (15 1/4-ounce) cans sliced beets, rinsed and drained
  • 1 1/2 cups crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/2 cup pitted ripe olives
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
  • Salt, pepper and garlic powder, to taste
  • Dash hot sauce

Directions

Remove broiler tray from oven and coat with nonstick cooking spray. Replace tray and preheat broiler. After beets are drained place on coated broiler tray. Place under hot broiler, turning every 2 to 3 minutes until edges start to brown, approximately 8 to10 minutes. Remove beets from oven and allow to cool. Mix remaining ingredients with cooled beets. Toss and serve.

**My variation: So here is how I eat my veggies! Covered in yummy stuff  to hide the taste :)  I use fresh beets. Don't slice them too thinly or else they burn too quickly under the broiler.
Please note: I love to eat this as soon as I make it but others say it tastes even better if you let it sit overnight and really let the juices sink in. ** Another thing I love to add to this is baby spinach....mix it all up in the sauce and yum! Can't taste any veggies :D
