Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the beets thoroughly and trim off the stems, leaving about an inch attached. Wrap each beet in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet. Roast in the oven for about 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork. Allow the beets to cool before peeling and dicing them into bite-sized pieces.
-
In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, honey, salt, and pepper to create the dressing. Adjust the seasoning to taste and set it aside.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced beets, fresh arugula, crumbled goat cheese, and chopped walnuts. Gently toss the ingredients together to mix them evenly.
-
Drizzle the prepared balsamic vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to coat all the ingredients with the dressing.
-
Once everything is well combined, transfer the salad to a serving platter or individual plates. You can sprinkle some extra goat cheese and walnuts on top for an extra touch of flavor and presentation.
-
Serve the Beet Salad Supreme immediately and enjoy the delightful blend of textures and flavors in every bite. This salad pairs beautifully with grilled chicken or crusty bread for a light and satisfying meal.
