Golden Beet Salad Recipe

Preparation Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Beets

   Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the golden beets thoroughly and trim the tops and roots. Wrap each beet individually in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet. Roast the beets in the oven for 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.

2. 2

   Cool and Peel the Beets

   Once roasted, remove the beets from the oven and let them cool for about 15 minutes. Once cooled, unwrap the foil and peel off the skin using your hands or a paper towel. Cut the beets into bite-sized cubes.

3. 3

   Toast the Walnuts

   While the beets are cooling, place the walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat. Toast them for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until they are golden brown and fragrant. Remove from heat and let them cool.

4. 4

   Prepare the Dressing

   In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

5. 5

   Assemble the Salad

   In a large mixing bowl, combine the arugula, roasted golden beets, crumbled feta cheese, toasted walnuts, and chopped parsley. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
