Ingredients
- 10 ounces arugula (2 – 5-ounce packages)
- 1 .8 ounce package of vacuum-packed roasted beets or 3 large or 4 small roasted beets, sliced into small wedges.
- 1/2 cup toasted candied walnuts coarsely chopped.
- 3 ounces feta or Goat cheese, crumbled.
- 2 Tablespoons honey or agave
- 1 1/2 Tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 3 Tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 Tablespoon onion powder or 1 Tablespoons of minced shallots
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil plus 2 Tablespoons
Instructions
- Place the arugula in a large bowl. Top with the beets, walnuts and feta.
- In a small bowl, add the oil, honey, vinegar, mustard, onion powder, salt and pepper. Whisk to combine.
- Taste the dressing and add more salt and/or pepper to taste.
- Pour the dressing over the salad, garnish with fresh cracked pepper and serve.
Notes
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Scrub all the dirt off the outside of the beets.
- Trim the top leaves and bottom smaller roots.
- Rub each beet with olive oil and wrap each one individually with foil making sure to completely cover it.
- Put the beets on a baking sheet and bake for 60-75 minutes or until the largest beet is finished cooking.
- You can test the doneness of the beets by piercing the largest beet with a paring knife. If it’s soft and goes in easily, it’s done!
- Allow the beets to fully cool in their foil packets.
- Then remove the foil and run the beet under cool water. The skin should slip off easily.
- Voila! Fresh roasted beets!
