Delicious Beet Salad With Goat Cheese And Walnuts Recipe

Ingredients

Servings:
2
  • 2 medium beets (roasted and sliced)
  • 1 cup goat cheese (crumbled)
  • 1 cup walnuts (chopped and toasted)
  • 4 cups mixed greens (such as arugula and spinach)
  • 1 cup olive oil (extra virgin)
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon salt (to taste)

Instructions

6 steps

  1. Prepare the Beets

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Wrap the beets in aluminum foil and roast for about 45-60 minutes until tender.

    You can use pre-cooked beets to save time.
  2. Slice the Beets

    Once the beets are cool enough to handle, peel them and slice them into thin rounds.

    Use gloves to avoid staining your hands.
  3. Toast the Walnuts

    In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the walnuts for about 5 minutes or until fragrant, stirring frequently.

    Keep an eye on the walnuts to prevent burning.
  4. Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, sliced beets, crumbled goat cheese, and toasted walnuts.

    You can layer the ingredients for a more visually appealing salad.
  5. Make the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and salt to create a dressing.

    Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning as needed.
  6. Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.

    Serve immediately for the freshest taste.
