Roasted Beet Avocado And Granny Smith Apples Tower Recipes

ROASTED BEET, AVOCADO, AND GRANNY SMITH APPLE TOWER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Coat the beets with 1/4 cup of the olive oil and season with1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Individually wrap each beet with aluminum foil. Place beets on a baking sheet and roast for 45 to 60 minutes, until they are fork tender.
• When the beets are cool enough to handle, peel off the skin. Slice the peeled beets crosswise.
• Cut the avocado in half crosswise and remove the pit and skin. Continue to slice crosswise into rings. Squeeze lemon juice to prevent browning.
• Prepare the apples the same way as the avocado. Remove the core but do not peel the skin.
• Divide the beets, apples, and avocados into 6 servings. On each serving dish alternate and stack the beet, apple, and avocado slices. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with goat cheese crumbles and garnish with parsley and pine nuts.

ROASTED BEET, AVOCADO AND GRANNY SMITH APPLES TOWER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Wash and scrub the beets. Pat dry. Place on large piece of aluminum foil. Lightly coat with olive oil. Add dash of salt and pepper. For even roasting, wrap foil over, covering beets completely, and crimp ends. Roast until cooked through, 30 to 50 minutes. Remove, uncover and let cool. Do not discard oil in the foil; you can use this later as dressing.
• Cut the avocados in half lengthwise and remove the pit and skin. Place flat side down on cutting board. Slice horizontally. Squeeze lemon juice on to prevent browning. Cut Granny Smith same way, but leave skin on. Squeeze lemon juice on to prevent browning.
• When the beets are cool enough to handle, slip their peels off using your fingers or a paring knife. Slice crosswise. Stack on plate alternating beets, apples and avocados. Sprinkle crumbled goat cheese over top. Garnish with parsley and pine nuts if desired. Drizzle the used olive oil from roasting and the rest of the olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
