Roasted Beet and Fennel Salad

One of the vegetables that my grandmother had in her garden and on her menu often was beets and just like her I love beets.  We grow beets in our garden and there is nothing better than a fresh roasted beet.  We also have the most beautiful Fennel in our Herb Garden.  I wanted to make a salad that would be full of flavor and pair these two vegetables together, we just love the flavor of this salad. This is a great Garden to Table Salad.

    I still struggle with beets. I think it's the purple color. I've never actually tried one though. I need to grow up. This recipe sounds delicious with the vinaigrette.
    Thank you for bringing it to Foodie Friday
