Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Roast the Beets

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Wrap each beet in aluminum foil, drizzle with a little olive oil, and sprinkle with salt. Place them on a baking sheet and roast for about 45-60 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork. Once done, let them cool, then peel the skins off and cut into wedges.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Salad Base

    While the beets are roasting, wash and dry the arugula. Place it in a large salad bowl.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Salad

    Once the beets are cooled and cut, add the beet wedges on top of the arugula. Crumble the goat cheese over the salad. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Dressing Preparation

  1. 4

    Make the Dressing

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

  2. 5

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the dressing over the assembled salad just before serving. Toss gently to combine.
