Time 1h30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 medium beets, stemmed (red, gold, or a combination, about 1 1/2 pounds total)
1 tablespoon olive oil
3/4 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
3 tablespoons minced red onions
2 tablespoons raspberry jam
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon sugar
salt & freshly ground black pepper
8 ounces mixed baby lettuces and spring greens
1 cup walnuts, toasted
fresh ground black pepper
6 ounces gorgonzola, crumbled

Steps:

  • To Roast the Beets: Adjust the oven rack to the center position and preheat the oven to 400°F Rub the beets with the olive oil and wrap them together in a large piece of aluminum foil. Put the beets in a small roasting pan or baking dish and roast them for 50 minutes to an hour, until they are tender when a knife is inserted in the center.
  • Remove the foil packet from the pan and let the beets cool on the foil before unwrapping. Using your fingers, peel the beets over the foil. The skins should slip off easily; if not, use a paring knife. Cut the beets into 1/4-inch matchstick slices and reserve.
  • To make the Vinaigrette: Put the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, red wine vinegar, onion, jam, mustard, and sugar in the container of a blender or food processor. Process until well blended and emulsified. (You should have 1 cup.) Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • To Assemble the salad: In a large salad bowl, toss the greens, beets, and walnuts with half of the dressing. Season to taste with pepper. Top each serving with some of the cheese. Pass the remaining dressing at the table.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender broccoli and beets. For the best flavor and texture, look for broccoli crowns that are deep green and tightly closed. Beets should be firm and smooth, with no signs of bruising or wilting.
  • Roast the broccoli and beets before assembling the salad. Roasting brings out the natural sweetness of the vegetables and gives them a slightly caramelized flavor. You can roast the broccoli and beets together on a single sheet pan, or roast them separately if you want to control the cooking time more precisely.
  • Make the raspberry vinaigrette ahead of time. The vinaigrette can be made up to 3 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator. Just be sure to whisk it well before using.
  • Use a variety of nuts and seeds in the salad. Nuts and seeds add crunch and flavor to the salad. You can use any type of nuts or seeds you like, but some good options include almonds, walnuts, pecans, pistachios, sunflower seeds, and pumpkin seeds.
  • Serve the salad immediately after assembling. The roasted vegetables and raspberry vinaigrette will lose their flavor if the salad sits for too long.

Conclusion:

This broccoli beet salad with raspberry vinaigrette is a delicious and healthy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The roasted broccoli and beets are tender and flavorful, and the raspberry vinaigrette adds a bright and tangy flavor. This salad is also packed with nutrients, including vitamins A, C, and K, and fiber. So next time you're looking for a healthy and delicious side dish, give this broccoli beet salad a try.
