Roasted Beet and Feta Stack 🥗🍂
Ingredients:
3 large beets
6 oz feta cheese, crumbled
1/4 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp honey
2 tbsp olive oil
Fresh thyme for garnish
Salt and pepper to taste
Flavor:
A balanced combination of sweet roasted beets, tangy feta, and a rich balsamic glaze with crunchy walnuts.
Directions:
Roast the Beets:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash and scrub the beets thoroughly. Wrap each beet in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet. Roast for 50-60 minutes, or until the beets are tender when pierced with a fork. Allow the beets to cool, then peel them and slice into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
Prepare the Balsamic Honey Glaze:
In a small saucepan, heat the balsamic vinegar and honey over medium heat. Simmer the mixture for 10-15 minutes, or until it reduces by half and thickens into a glaze. Set aside to cool slightly.
Assemble the Stack:
On a serving plate, alternate layers of roasted beet slices and crumbled feta cheese to create a stacked presentation. Drizzle the layers with olive oil and the balsamic honey glaze.
Add Toppings:
Sprinkle the toasted and chopped walnuts over the top of the stack. Garnish with fresh thyme leaves. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
