Recipe type: Sandwich
Serves: 2
Ingredients
  • 2 yellow beets, peeled and sliced into ½ inch rounds
  • 1 red bell pepper, halved and cored
  • Olive oil
  • 1 cup goat cheese
  • 2 sprigs fresh rosemary, finely chopped
  • Balsamic reduction
  • Mixed greens and/or arugula
  • Salt and pepper
  • Focaccia
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  2. Peel and slice beets into ½ inch rounds. Toss beet slices in a touch of olive oil and some salt and lay in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the beets are lightly browned. Once cool enough to handle, remove slices from baking tray and set aside.
  3. Turn the oven up to a 500 degree broil. Lightly oil a halved and cored bell pepper and place, skin side up, on the baking tray. Broil for 10-15 minutes, until the pepper's skin is black and bubbly. Remove from oven and let cool. The pepper's blackened skin should peel off easily.
  4. Halve some focaccia. Stack beets and peppers on the bread. Top with finely chopped fresh rosemary, a very healthy crumbling of goat cheese, a drizzle of balsamic reduction and some mixed greens.
