Are you craving a bite of warm, sweet and satisfying? You might go head-first into a plate of pie, but what your body really needs is a roasted beet and carrot salad. Even though it’s nutritiously filling, this salad is not so different than dessert. First, the beets and carrots are cooked to bring out their natural sweetness. Then, you add goat cheese, which practically melts like ice cream over oven-fresh veggies. To top it off is a decadent maple-balsamic dressing you can’t resist. When you put it all together, you get a whole new way to “beet” cravings.
