Golden Beet Salad image

This is adapted from a similar recipe on Epicurious. I served it to a friend who is allergic to the original walnuts and DH doesn't like the original blue cheese. So here we go! Prep time included cooking the beets.

Not a fan of this salad. The beets were too earthy and the dressing was too oily.

I was disappointed in this salad. The beets were undercooked and the dressing was too vinegary. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

This salad was good, but not great. I thought the beets were a little too sweet and the dressing was a bit bland. I might try making it again with different ingredients.

Loved this salad! The combination of flavors and textures was perfect. I especially liked the dressing, which was light and tangy. I will definitely be making this salad again.

This salad was easy to make and turned out great! I used a pre-cooked beet to save time. The dressing was simple but flavorful. I will definitely make this salad again.

I'm not usually a fan of beets, but this salad changed my mind! The sweetness of the beets was perfectly balanced by the tanginess of the goat cheese and the crunch of the walnuts. The dressing was also delicious and really brought the whole dish tog
