Roasted Beet, Avocado, and Orange Salad (Vegan, Gluten-Free)
- 4 Medium-Large Red Or Yellow Beets
- 1 teaspoon Vegetable Oil
- 1 Ripe Avocado
- 2 Oranges
- 1 Tablespoon Shelled Pistachios
- 1 teaspoon Minced Tarragon Or Other Herb Of Choice
- Flaked Sea Salt
- High-quality, Extra-virgin Olive Oil
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
- Wash beets and remove the greens (but save them for another recipe).
- Pat dry and place beets on a sheet of foil and rub with vegetable oil.
- Tightly close the foil packets and roast on a baking sheet for 4560 minutes, or until a fork easily slides into them.
- Immediately run beets one by one under cool water while rubbing the peels off.
- The water will make them feel cool enough to handle but be careful as they are still very hot.
- Set them aside to cool.
- Cut avocado, orange, and beets into small slices or large rounds, depending on your plating design.
- Layer beets on plate first to keep them from staining the other ingredients.
- Layer avocado and orange on top, then sprinkle with pistachios, tarragon, sea salt, and a healthy drizzle of olive oil.
- Serve immediately at room temperature.
- If preparing in advance, keep ingredients stored separately until right before serving.
