Man’s happiness was never meant to be determined by his circumstances, and that is the fatal blunder that we all tend to make… Man’s happiness depends on one thing only – and that is his relationship to God!... We cannot get it anywhere else. We must come back to the soul and to God who made it. We were made for Him, we are meant for Him, we have a correspondence with Him, and we will never come to rest until, like that needle on the compass, we strike that northern point, and there we come to rest – nowhere else.

INGREDIENTS

2	tb	Balsamic vinegar
1	tb	Walnut oil
1	tb	Olive oil
12		Baby beets with greens attached;, (12 to 16)
		Assorted varieties
2	tb	Olive oil
3		Sprigs fresh thyme
6	md	Spring onions; stems trimmed to 2"
		Coarse salt
		Freshly ground pepper
2	tb	Crumbled blue cheese -; (1 oz)

INSTRUCTIONS

Whisk together balsalmic vinegar, walnut oil, and olive oil to make
vinaigrette. Set aside. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Remove leafy greens
from tops of beets; reserve greens and discard stems. Rinse greens
thoroughly, and refrigerate. Pare away tough skin at top of beets.
With a firm-bristle vegetable brush or the back of a paring knife,
scrub beets clean under cold running water. Place beets in a small
roasting pan. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and the thyme. Season with
salt and pepper. Add enough water to just cover the bottom, and cover
tightly. Cook 20 minutes, remove lid, and continue cooking until
beets are tender to the tip of a sharp knife, about 10 to 15 minutes.
Slice the onions in quarters lengthwise. In a large sauté pan over
medium-low heat, add butter and onions, and sauté 5 to 7 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium-high, and continue cooking until caramelized,
about 5 minutes. Transfer the onions to a bowl, and set aside. Remove
beet greens from refrigerator. Using the same pan as the onions,
sauté greens over medium high-heat until just wilted, about 2
minutes. Transfer immediately to serving plate. Place onions over
greens. Trim "tails" from beets and slice larger ones in half.
Arrange over wilted greens with onions. Drizzle vinaigrette over
beets and greens. Sprinkle with blue cheese. Serve immediately.
Serves 4.
