It's a great vegetarian dish to serve as an appetizer or just eat a big bowl of it as a main course. And if you have the time, mix the beets with the vinaigrette and let it rest in the fridge overnight for the flavors to develop. The strawberry flavor from the vinaigrette really intensifies overnight!
