Sweet Potato, Beet, & Carrot Salad

It feels like fall in the Northeast Georgia mountains! I decided this week it was time to decorate and start incorporating some new seasonal food into my diet. Seasonally eating is proven to have a slew of health benefits.

Here's a few benefits of eating more fresh produce: 1. higher in nutrients and minerals

2. more flavor when eaten from ripened fruit versus fruit at the supermarket

3. antioxidants that may support against cancer

A rough recipe for your autumn salad as follows:

2 Carrots 2 Beets

1 Shallot

1 Sweet Potato

Roast the following and season with salt, pepper, & rosemary (optional) in olive oil for 45 minutes to an hour on 350F depending on your oven, stirring around 20-25 minutes.

Mixed Greens for Salad

Walnuts

Sunflower or Pumpkin Seeds

Balsamic Vinegar to taste

Mix the following ingredients together. Top with roasted root veggies, mix, & enjoy!
