Beetroot and Carrot Tart With Ricotta
Make on FrescoI love my vegetarian dishes...don't you? This one is super pretty and very festive so suitable for any occasion that requires you to feed both the vegetarian and non-vegetarian something hearty, filling but also elegant. This goes perfectly well with a green salad for lunch or use it for dinner and serve it up with a truck load of steamed veggies.
It is also fantastic cold the next day. But you may never find that out as it is so good hot! Enjoy!
