Very dramatic presentation and so wonderful when you can get fresh vegetables. The beets and tomatoes were mine; the corn very local. I used tarragon and basil and would certainly use other herbs depending on what my main course is. So very simple. Please note that the recipe does not mention that you need to peel the beets once they have been roasted.
