Roasted Beet and Arugula Salad

Tonight you’ll turn to the fridge and harvest beets that were roasted earlier in the week. Get ready to savor the sweet and earthy tones of roasted beets, the slightly bitter flavor of the arugula, and a variety of other fresh crisp veggies. Some of my favorite flavors reside in this salad. You’ll drizzle the whole salad with a slightly sweet orange juice dressing.

Fan sliced hard boiled eggs over the top and garnish with toasted pecan pieces and fresh mango. Now that’s a flavor festival! A sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese completes the plate.
