BEET AND BERRY SALAD
I first had a similar salad at Annie Gunn's in St. Louis and really liked it (licked my plate clean), but felt something was missing from it. I just figured it out. . .I think the dressing should have a touch of sweetness! That being said, here is my retake on the recipe. If you aren't a fan of goat cheese, feel free to sub it out with Boursin or feta. Also sometimes they serve this salad with strawberries instead of blackberries, but I think the blackberries always look prettier!

Steps:
- Whisk together first three ingredients and set aside.
- Place 1 cup of greens on each plate.
- Top each plate of greens with a few slivers of onion, 6 beet halves, 6 raspberries, 3 blackberries, and 1 T of goat cheese crumbles (if you can't get crumbles, just put a "round" of goat cheese in the middle).
- Finish off with a drizzle of dressing and some fresh ground black pepper.
Tips:
- Choose the best beets: Look for beets that are small to medium in size and have smooth, firm skin. Avoid beets that are bruised or have blemishes.
- Prepare the beets properly: To roast the beets, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the beets with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Wrap each beet in aluminum foil and roast for 45-60 minutes, or until tender. To boil the beets, place them in a large pot of boiling water. Cook for 30-45 minutes, or until tender. Once the beets are cooked, let them cool slightly before peeling and slicing them.
- Use fresh berries: For the best flavor, use fresh berries in this salad. Strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries are all good choices.
- Make the dressing ahead of time: The dressing for this salad can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This makes it a great option for a quick and easy weeknight meal.
- Serve the salad immediately: This salad is best served immediately after it is made. The beets and berries will start to lose their color and flavor if they sit for too long.
Conclusion:
This beet and berry salad is a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for a summer meal. The roasted beets are tender and slightly sweet, while the berries add a burst of flavor and color. The dressing is light and tangy, and it perfectly complements the other ingredients. This salad is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, making it a healthy and delicious choice.
