Salad Base

Method

Preparation of Ingredients

  1. 1

    Wash and Prepare Greens

    Thoroughly wash the arugula and spinach under cold running water. Shake off excess water and place them in a large salad bowl.

  2. 2

    Prepare Baby Beets

    If using fresh baby beets, boil them for about 15-20 minutes or until tender. Once cooled, peel and slice them into wedges. If using canned baby beets, simply drain them and cut into wedges.

  3. 3

    Prepare Strawberries

    Rinse the strawberries, remove the stems, and slice them into thin rounds.

  4. 4

    Chop Walnuts

    Roughly chop the walnuts into smaller pieces for easier eating.

  5. 5

    Crumble Goat Cheese

    Using your fingers or a fork, crumble the goat cheese into small pieces.

Assembling the Salad

  1. 6

    Combine Ingredients

    In the large salad bowl with the arugula and spinach, add the sliced baby beets, sliced strawberries, chopped walnuts, and crumbled goat cheese.

  2. 7

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the Bing cherry balsamic vinaigrette over the salad. Start with half a cup and add more to taste.

  3. 8

    Toss the Salad

    Gently toss the salad ingredients together until everything is well coated with the dressing.
