The recipe was easy to follow, but the final result was a bit bland. I think it needed more seasoning.

I thought the lime vinaigrette was a little too sour for my taste, so I added a little honey to balance it out.

I love roasted beets. To add a refreshing twist, I marinated them in the lime vinaigrette before roasting them. It was delicious!
