Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Wrap the beets individually in aluminum foil and place them on a sheet pan. Roast them for 50 minutes to 1 hour, depending on their size, until a small sharp knife inserted in the middle indicates that they are tender. Unwrap each beet and set aside for 10 minutes, until cool enough to handle. Peel the beets with a small, sharp knife over a piece of parchment paper to prevent staining your cutting board.
- Meanwhile, whisk together the vinegar, olive oil, mustard, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper and set aside. While the beets are still warm, cut each one in half and then each half into 4 to 6 wedges and place them in a large mixing bowl. As you're cutting the beets, toss them with half of the vinaigrette (warm beets absorb more vinaigrette), 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Taste for seasonings.
- Place the arugula in a separate bowl and toss it with enough vinaigrette to moisten. Put the arugula on a serving platter and then arrange the beets, almonds, and goat cheese on top. Drizzle with additional vinaigrette, if desired, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and serve warm or at room temperature.
BEET, ORANGE AND ARUGULA SALAD
The oranges in this sweet and pungent salad will look like blood oranges after they sit for a little while with the beets. This makes a pretty Christmas salad. Try to find the wispy wild arugula, which is more pungent than regular arugula.

Tips:
- Choose firm, deep-colored beets. Avoid beets that are soft, bruised, or have blemishes.
- Roast the beets until they are tender. The roasting process brings out the sweetness of the beets and caramelizes the edges.
- Use a variety of oranges. Blood oranges, navel oranges, and Valencia oranges all have different flavors and textures. Using a mix of oranges will add complexity to the salad.
- Slice the oranges thinly. This will help them to absorb the dressing and make them easier to eat.
- Use a good quality olive oil. The olive oil is the base of the dressing, so it's important to use a good one. Look for an olive oil that is extra virgin and has a fruity flavor.
- Add the dressing to the salad just before serving. This will help to prevent the salad from getting watery.
