Think you dislike beets? Not after trying this recipe! Roasting brings out the beets' natural sweetness, and the feta offers a salty contrast.

I opted out of the walnuts and used sunflower seeds. I used a raspberry shallot dressing instead and it worked great. - 7/5/10

I used canned beets and for the dressing only the lemon juice (no orange juice/zest). This is a very filling salad with lots of flavor! - 7/23/08
