golden beet salad with red wine vinegar reduction

This recipe is perfect for fall. Both savory and a little sweet. While beets take a long time to cook, it's well worth the wait!


Beets are a nutrient-dense vegetable that look so pretty on a plate and melt in your mouth when cooked like this. The red wine vinegar is reduced with sugar and cinnamon giving this meal a little sweetness.


Hope you enjoy! xo
