Roasted Beet, Pistachio And Pear Salad

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I really enjoyed this. . .and as I come back to rate it I realize I left off the nuts which would certainly have made it outstanding (4 stars without nuts and I am going to give you the benefit of the doubt that the nuts would push it to 5 stars). For the dressing, used 2 T of lemon juice and 2 T of grapefruit juice, added 1/2 tsp of spicy mustard, and skipped the sugar. . .oh, and I put in a small shake of some cinnamon that tastes more like chai. Loved the slight heat from the cayenne. My beets were pink so they were a little too mild for this recipe - I would recommend red beets for this one. Thanks for sharing this low calorie recipe which we had for lunch with a half a baked potato!
