PREPARATION
1.
Preheat oven to 375F.
PREPARING THE BEETS
2.
Trim the ends off of the beets and peel.
3.
Place flat in a small baking dish. Add 1" of water and cover with foil.
4.
Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until tender when poked with a fork. Let cool completely before slicing.
PREPARING THE HERB COTTAGE CHEESE
5.
Make this spread as soon as the beets go into the oven so it has time to chill.
6.
In a small bowl, add the cottage cheese, chives, parsley, thyme, pepper, and shredded cheese. Mix well and chill in the refrigerator while the beets cook so the flavors can mold together.
ASSEMBLING SANDWICH
7.
Toast each slice of bread until it is just crispy. You can use whole wheat hamburger buns in place if desired.
8.
Evenly distribute the baby arugula between 4 slices.
9.
Spoon 1-2 small spoonfuls of the herb cottage cheese over the baby arugula.
10.
Top with 2-3 slices of cooked beet.
