Scrub the beets under cold water.Wrap each beet in aluminum foil and place on a baking sheet. Bake until the beets are tender, about 1 hour. Cool completely. Unwrap the beets and peel them. Cut into ½ inch cubes or slice them.

Cut the endive crosswise . Separate the endive pieces into strips, discarding any tough, solid center pieces. Set the endive aside.
