Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/4 pounds golden beets, trimmed and rinsed
1 1/2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon whole-grain or Dijon mustard
1 ounce spinach leaves or baby spinach, sliced (about 1 cup)
3 tablespoons toasted walnuts
1 ounce blue cheese, crumbled (1/4 cup)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • Place the beets in a roasting pan and add water to a depth of 1/2 inch. Cover the pan with foil and bake until the beets are easily pierced with a fork, about 1 1/2 hours. Set the beets aside until they are cool enough to handle. Peel and rinse off any pieces of skin. Slice the beets into 1/2-inch-thick rounds, and then cut them into 1/4-inch-thick sticks. Let the beets cool to room temperature.
  • Toss the beets with the rice vinegar, salt, and pepper. Add the olive oil and mustard and toss with the spinach. Garnish with the toasted walnuts and crumbled blue cheese.
  • Make Ahead: You can roast the beets up to 3 days in advance; toss them just before serving.

I'm not a big fan of beets, but I loved this salad! The goat cheese and walnuts really balance out the sweetness of the beets.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover beets. I always have a few beets leftover from making borscht, and this is the perfect way to use them up.

I added a bit of honey to the dressing to make it a little sweeter. It was the perfect finishing touch.

I'm not a huge fan of goat cheese, so I substituted feta cheese instead. It was still delicious!
