As promised...the first recipe from last nights dinner party!
Mixed Greens with Roasted Almonds and Beets, topped off with some
feta cheese and a homemade vinagrette
The Ingredients:
your choice of mixed greens
oven roasted beets
skillet roasted almond slivers
some good feta cheese
The Easy Directions
Wrap the beets covered in olive oil and seasoned with salt and pepper in foil and bake in the oven for about 45 minutes or until tender. I had my oven set at 400°F. The almonds you simply brown in a pan on the stove--watch out---your kitchen will smell wonderful! Crumble the cheese.
To assemble
Arrange the mixed greens on a salad plate, add sliced beets, sprinkle with some almond slivers and feta cheese.
And to top it off: The Vinaigrette!!
Whisk together: 2 Tablespoons Honey, 1 1/2 Tablespoons Djion Mustard, 3 Tablespoons Red Wine Vinegar, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper. In a slow stream, add 6 Tablespoons grapeseed oil.
Pour over salad and there you have it!
One more thing, since I did not have red wine vinegar on hand I used some of my homemade cranberry vinegar---YUMMY!
Happy Foodie Friday Everyone!
Be sure to stop by on Sunday when it is once again time for New Recipe Sunday!

This nut grows on a shrub native to Belgium and the Netherlands that we know as the hazel. The well-known shrub is found in all areas with a temperate climate. Perhaps less well known is that, according to some scientists, the hazelnut is related to the birch. Others prefer to treat the hazel as a separate plant family. Whatever the case, the hazelnut is in any case a nut from us. Just like the birch, the hazel bears the characteristic catkins in the spring. Hazelnoten
