Spinach Salad with Roasted Beets and Bleu Cheese


A fresh salad with lots of flavor and the extra bonus of iron and fiber
Ingredients:

3 bunches of baby beets, halved
1/3 cup olive oil
A few Thyme sprigs
salt and pepper
16oz baby spinach leaves
1/2 cup celery leaves (optional)
1 cup toasted walnut halves
Litehouse Bleu Cheese Crumbles
Litehouse Bleu Cheese Vinaigrette

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. On large sheet of aluminum foil, lay the beets and drizzle with olive oil. Place the thyme sprigs on top and sprinkle a bit of salt and pepper. Fold the aluminum foil up tightly and bake about 45 minutes to 1 hour (until beets are fork tender). Cool. Slide skins off and discard. Mix spinach leaves, beets, toasted walnut halves and Litehouse Bleu Cheese Crumbles. Top with Litehouse Bleu Cheese Vinaigrette to taste.
