Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beets

    Wash and trim the local beets. Boil or roast them until tender, about 30-40 minutes. Once cooked, allow them to cool and peel the skins off. Cut into thin slices.

  2. 2

    Slice the Burrata

    Carefully slice the burrata cheese into quarters or halves, depending on preference. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash all the vegetables. Tear the lettuce into bite-sized pieces. Slice the avocado, cucumber, red onion, and tomato into thin slices.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large salad bowl, layer the mixed greens at the base. Add the sliced beets, avocado, cucumber, red onion, and tomato on top.

  5. 5

    Add Cheese and Toppings

    Place the sliced burrata and crumbled feta cheese over the salad. Sprinkle the candied almonds for a sweet crunch.

  6. 6

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the basil pesto and balsamic reduction over the salad evenly.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Toss the salad gently to combine all ingredients. Serve immediately as a fresh and vibrant dish.
