Citrus Vinaigrette Ingredients

Method

Beet Preparation

  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 a fork can easily pierce through the beets. Allow them to cool, then peel and cut into wedges.

Citrus Vinaigrette Preparation

  1. 2

    Make the Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, honey, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste and set aside.

Salad Assembly

  1. 3

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large salad bowl, add the arugula. Top with the roasted beet wedges, segments of grapefruit and orange, crumbled goat cheese, and candied walnuts.

  2. 4

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the citrus vinaigrette over the salad before serving. Toss gently to combine all ingredients and ensure the arugula is lightly coated in dressing.
