Golden Beet and Sunflower SaladVictoria Pearson

To maximize the flavor of this salad, toss the beets with the dressing while they're still warm, so they'll absorb more of it. Sunflower seeds turn rancid fairly quickly, so it's important to purchase them from a place with high turnover, such as a natural foods store.

Active time: 20 min Start to finish: 1 1/4 hr

Cooks' note:

Beets can be roasted, sliced, and dressed 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
