Beet it


I love salads, but honestly, sometimes even the good old Caprese needs a face lift to spark my interest. A good friend known for her interesting salads recommended a curious addition - beets! The bold and sour flavor of marinated beets binds amazingly well with either mild cheeses, such as fresh mozzarella, or strongly flavored cheeses, such as Danish Havarti or Brie. For an extra kick add sliced Cubanelle peppers. Place on a bed of greens and dress with balsamic vinegar and olive oil and voila! I may even skip that spinning class tonight after such a healthy dinner!
