"Appetites" Beet & Orange Salad

In tribute, a favorite salad of Anthony Bourdain's daughter from his cookbook, Appetites: A Cookbook:

Ingredients:
6 small beets, tops removed, scrubbed clean
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
1-2 oranges, peeled, segments removed from pith
2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup mint (optional)

Directions:  Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
1. Toss beets in olive oil, and roast for 45-50 minutes, or until cooked through. Let cool.
2. When cool enough to handle, peel the beets and cut in 1/4" slices.
3. Combine the onion, orange segments, vinegar, olive oil and mint if using.
4. Toss the beets in the dressing, and serve.
