Description

Ingredients
Scale
- 4 medium beets
- 6 cups spinach
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 medium lemon (juiced)
- to taste salt

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wrap whole beets in aluminum foil and roast for about 45-60 minutes, until fork-tender.
- Once roasted, allow the beets to cool for a bit before peeling; the skin should come off easily with your fingers. Cut into wedges for an attractive presentation.

- In a large bowl, combine spinach, beets, and drizzle with the dressing just before serving. Toss gently to coat.
