Number Of Ingredients 10

6 large golden beets, trimmed
6 ounces haricots verts, trimmed
Coarse salt
2 tablespoons white-wine vinegar
2 tablespoons minced shallot (from 1 shallot)
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup loosely packed torn fresh basil, plus small leaves for garnish
2 ounces goat cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wrap beets in parchment, then foil, and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast until tender, about 60 minutes. Let cool completely. Peel and cut beets into 1/2-inch dice. Transfer to a large bowl.
  • Prepare an ice-water bath. Cook haricots verts in boiling salted water until bright green and crisp tender, about 2 minutes. Transfer to ice-water bath, and drain. Cut beans diagonally into thirds, and add to beets.
  • Mix vinegar, shallot, and mustard in a small bowl. Add oil in a slow, steady stream, whisking until emulsified. Toss with vegetables, and season with salt and pepper. Stir in torn basil and goat cheese. Garnish with basil leaves.

This salad was a complete disaster. The beets were raw, the goat cheese was moldy, and the vinaigrette was too oily.

I didn't like this salad at all. The beets were too overpowering and the goat cheese was too strong.

This salad is just okay. It's not bad, but it's not great either.

This salad is missing something. I would add some chopped nuts or seeds for a bit of crunch.

The beets were a bit undercooked for my taste. I would roast them for a few minutes longer next time.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would add less honey next time.

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

This salad is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables. It's packed with nutrients and it tastes great too!

I added some chopped fresh herbs to this salad and it really brightened up the flavors.

This salad is a great make-ahead dish. I made it the night before and it was even better the next day.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover beets. I had some roasted beets in the fridge and this salad was the perfect way to use them up.

I'm not usually a fan of beets, but this salad changed my mind. The beets were roasted to perfection and the goat cheese and walnuts added a lot of flavor.

This salad is so easy to make and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I love the vibrant colors of the beets and the goat cheese adds a nice creamy touch.

I've made this salad several times now and it's always a favorite. The combination of sweet beets, tangy goat cheese, and crunchy walnuts is just perfect.

This salad was a hit at my dinner party! The beets were perfectly roasted and the goat cheese added a nice tang. I will definitely be making this again.
