I love the combination of flavors in this salad. The sweetness of the beets, the crunchiness of the sunflower seeds, and the tanginess of the goat cheese are all perfectly balanced.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover beets. I always have a few beets left over after I make borscht, and this salad is the perfect way to use them up.

I'm not a big fan of beets, but I loved this salad. The sweetness of the beets was perfectly balanced by the tangy goat cheese.
