As much as we love eating beets, apparently we love buying beets even more. There always seems to be some lying at the bottom of our refrigerator’s crisper drawer. Since we’re averse to wasting good produce, we had to come up with something new to do with them.

Beets are an under-appreciated and extremely versatile food, and while our first impulse was to turn them into pasta, we decided to try something new. Roasting beets is a classic way to prepare the sweet, burgundy lovelies, and this salad combines the earthy sweetness of the beets with a tart lemon/vinegar dressing and a light, fresh sliced pear.
