Ingredients (Serves 6):

- 3 medium-sized beets
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup cream cheese
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 baguette, sliced and toasted

Cooking Tips:

- Use fresh beets for the best flavor and texture.
- Roast the beets until they are tender and easy to slice.
- Use a food processor to whip the feta cheese, cream cheese, and sour cream together until smooth.
- Add the chopped herbs to the whipped feta mixture for added flavor.

Cooking Process:

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Wash and trim the beets, then wrap them in foil and roast for 45-60 minutes, or until tender.
2. Once the beets are cooked, remove them from the oven and let them cool. Once cooled, peel the skin off the beets and slice them into thin rounds.
3. In a food processor, combine the crumbled feta cheese, cream cheese, and sour cream. Pulse until smooth.
4. Add the chopped parsley, chives, and dill to the whipped feta mixture and pulse until well combined.
5. Drizzle the baguette slices with olive oil and toast until crispy.
6. To assemble the canapés, spread a generous amount of the whipped feta mixture onto each baguette slice. Top with a slice of roasted beet and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
