Warm Beet and Baby Spinach Salad

Excellent. Loved the earthy flavors and clean taste of the belly warming salad. I used canola oil for frying then added a splash of very high quality olive oil in the last minute of cooking. I also used 12 year old balsamic vinegar and flaky Fluer de sel sea salt. Wow, it really makes a difference using high quality ingredients.
