Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 beets, scrubbed (red, gold, or one of each)
  • 1 blood orange, segmented
  • 1 cara cara orange, segmented
  • 1 navel orange, segmented
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves
  • 2 tbsp pistachios, roughly chopped
  • 1 tbsp honey (I use maunka honey)
  • 2 tsp good quality extra virgin olive oil
  • Coarse sea salt

Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 400°F. Wrap beets in foil and roast 45 minutes or until soft. Let cool before handling. (I like to roast mine the day before.)
  2. Gently peel skin from beets and slice into wedges.
  3. Arrange beets on a platter. Arrange citrus segments around beets. Sprinkle with mint and pistachios. Drizzle with honey and oil and sprinkle with coarse sea salt. Serve.
