I know, this recipes looks weird! So much stuff! But don’t worry, it’s really delicious. Actually, to be honest, my fiancé doesn’t like roasted beetroot but just give it a shot.
For this mix I would like to have sweet with beetroot, spicy with salsa and crispy with chicken. I hope you will like it. Let me know.
I really love beetroot, my grand-father has some in his garden. Some time, we eat them cooked, grated and finally, roasted! I like this last way to prepare it. It’s actually very simple to make. Actually, I was a little disappointed at first because I couldn’t find balsamic vinegar, a lot of oil and olive oil but no balsamic vinegar! It’s like a tradition in France, we add balsamic in every salad. Finally, I managed to fin it at Trader Joe’s! Just one choice but it’s fine, this one is good.
To add some creamy and spicy, the avocado salsa was perfect. I can eat avocado every day! It’s delicious and healthy. You can make so many things with it!! Do no hesitate to make more salsa, you can add it in salad or use it as a sauce for tacos for example (that gives me ideas)…
Well! Here the recipe 🙂
