Description

This beet salad recipe with goat cheese is perfection! Serve the roasted root veggie over greens with a tangy balsamic dressing.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium beets
  • 1 recipe Best Balsamic Vinaigrette
  • 1 shallot
  • 5 ounces (8 cups) baby greens
  • 2 ounces soft goat cheese
  • 1/4 cup roasted salted pistachios, roughly chopped

Instructions

  1. Cook the beets: Use our Oven Roasted Beets or Instant Pot Beets method. 
  2. Slice the beets: Slice the beets into wedges. Take proper precautions as beet juice stains easily).
  3. Make the dressing: In a medium bowl, make the Best Balsamic Vinaigrette.
  4. Toss the beets with the dressing (optional): Place the beets in the bowl with the dressing and stir. The beets will change the color of the dressing to a bright pink color and infuse a little sweetness. If you’d rather keep the balsamic vinaigrette color, you can skip this step.
  5. Assemble the salad: Thinly slice the shallot. Place the greens on a plate. Remove the beets from the dressing bowl and place them on top. Add crumbles of goat cheese, shallot, and chopped pistachios. Drizzle with dressing and serve.
