  1. Turn your oven on to 350° F.

  4. Increase oven temperature to 400° F.
  5. Place beets on a casserole-type dish, drizzle with a bit of oil, add a little water, and cover with foil.
  6. Roast until tender (about 45 minutes). Let cool.
  7. Whisk oil, orange juice, garlic, vinegar, and a sprinkle of salt together in a bowl.
  8. Cut the rind off the oranges (squeezing as much juice as you can into the dressing bowl) including the white part.
  9. Slice the orange, then cut the rounds into triangular segments.
  10. Squeeze the rest of the juice from the peel into the dressing.
  11. Place bread cubes, herbs, celery, oranges, greens, and capers into a bowl.
  12. Toss with the dressing.
