The earthiness of oven-roasted beets makes them a great base for this salad. In addition to being a stellar source of potassium, they're hearty and take on a beautiful purple hue when plated. Combined with the essential oils of the orange and tangy taste from the sour cream, it's a dish you're sure to enjoy.
