Method

Prepare the Beets

  1. 1

    Roast the Beets

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wrap each beet in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet. Roast for 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork. Once cooked, let them cool, then peel and slice them into wedges.

Prepare the Parsnip Shavings

  1. 2

    Crispy Parsnip Shavings

    Using a vegetable peeler, shave the parsnip into thin strips. Heat a small amount of oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the parsnip shavings and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels, then season with salt.

Make the Dressing

  1. 3

    Pecan Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Assemble the Salad

  1. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large bowl, add the heritage blend lettuce. Top with the roasted beet wedges, crumbled goat cheese, sweet & spicy pecans, and crispy parsnip shavings. Drizzle with the pecan vinaigrette just before serving.
