Beet salads have been featured here before. Every summer the heirloom varieties come to farmers markets and August is a great time to celebrate these special vegetables again. These beets are generally milder than their dark red cousins, the ones seen most of the year. If you want to try beets out on your family, now is the perfect time.
Wrap them in aluminum foil, roast them in a very hot oven (450˚F) and test with a fork after 30-45 minutes. Larger ones will take longer. Wait a few minutes then peel easily to reveal their inner beauty.
Keep it simple. Serve sliced beets with some goat cheese and toasted pepitas over bibb lettuce.
