Roasted Beet and Goat Cheese Salad image

I really like the combination of the beets and goat cheese in this salad. If your in a rush, canned or jarred "un-pickled" sliced beets work well here too, if you don't have time to roast fresh ones. Also, this salad works well with your favorite bottled vinaigrette, if you'd rather not make it from scratch. Cook time is beet roasting time.

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 large beets, unpeeled
2 cups red leaf lettuce or 2 cups green lettuce leaves, washed and torn into bit size pieces
1/4 cup goat cheese
2 teaspoons minced shallots
4 teaspoons red wine vinegar
1/4 cup olive oil
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Wrap beets in aluminum foil, and roast until tender, about 1 hour.
  • Let the beets cool a bit, and then peel the skins while they are still a bit warm.
  • Using a mandoline, or very sharp knife, cut beets into paper thin slices.
  • For the vinaigrette, place all the ingredients into a bowl or blender, and whisk or blend until well combined.
  • Toss the beets with half of the vinaigrette.
  • Toss the greens with the remaining vinaigrette.
  • Arrange the greens on a serving plate or bowl, and top with the beet slices.
  • Crumble the goat cheese over top the salad, and serve.

This salad is very time-consuming to make. I don't think it's worth the effort.

The beets took longer to roast than the recipe said. I had to add an extra 15 minutes.

I found the goat cheese to be a bit overpowering. I would use less of it next time.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of honey in the dressing next time.

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

This salad is a delightful blend of flavors and textures. The roasted beets are earthy and sweet, the goat cheese is creamy and tangy, and the arugula adds a peppery bite. The dressing is simple but flavorful, with a nice balance of sweet and tangy.
