Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large beets, trimmed and scrubbed

  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 4 cups mixed greens
  • 1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese
  • 1/4 cup toasted walnuts or pecans, roughly chopped
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinaigrette

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Wrap each beet tightly in foil.
  3. Roast for 45-60 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork.
  4. Let the beets cool slightly, then peel and cut them into bite-sized wedges.
  5. In a large bowl, toss the mixed greens with the roasted beet wedges, crumbled goat cheese, and toasted nuts.
  6. Drizzle with balsamic vinaigrette and toss gently to combine.
  7. Serve immediately and enjoy the wonderful flavors!

Notes

  • For an extra touch of sweetness, you can add a drizzle of honey over the salad before serving.
  • Feel free to substitute other nuts like almonds or pistachios.
  • If you don’t have balsamic vinaigrette, a simple mix of olive oil and balsamic vinegar with a pinch of salt and pepper works well.
