Greek Roasted Beet Salad (Patzaria Salata)

8

Another Mediterranean gem that is the coziest salad. The roasted beets are so meaty and yet so healthy. And all of the other ingredients are the best accompaniments to them.

The sweetness of the orange slices with the tanginess of the pickled red onions and the creamy saltiness of the feta cheese. And lets not forget the crunch of the almonds. so refreshing and nutritious. Such an amazing combination.

Pour on your olive oil and balsamic vinegar and toss to coat all ingredients. Serve with some crusty bread alone or with a nice steak or grilled chicken or fish.
