This is a real show stopper - it's red, glossy and super delicious! I always add pepitas (pumpkin seeds), tough you can leave them out if you're not a fan or don't have them handy. Roasted beetroots can be made ahead of time or even a few days earlier, just peel and keep in the fridge.

How To Make betty's roasted beetroot and blood orange salad

  • 1
    Firstly, to roast your beetroot: Gently spray each one with oil, wrap in foil and bake in the oven for 45 minutes - an hour. Just like you would a baked potato. Let cool and peel (I recommend using gloves unless you want purple hand for weeks!).
  • 2
    Chop your beetroot into large-ish chunks or eighths. Finally add everything else and carefully toss. Pour into a bowl and serve.
