Roasted Beet Goodness (organic foods per favore)
Roasted Beets, Sauerkraut, Figs, and Avocados…add hemp seeds and you have a balanced meal. Simple and easy meal.
Pre-heat the oven at 375 degrees. Roll the beets in organic olive oil (give them a good rub down). Then place them in a pan with enough oil to keep the beets moist. Roast for 25 minutes to 60 minutes depending on their size. Turn often. Then, you can store skins on in the fridge or use immediately for the salad.
The rest is pretty simple…slice and/or chop everything up (be creative with each ingredient..express yourself through the presentation). Once you have it all in a bowl sprinkle with hemp seeds. For extra flavor add salt, pepper and juice from Sauerkraut.
