Instructions
- Heat the oven to 400°F.
- Slice off the beet leaves close to the tip of the beet. Discard the beet greens. Scrub the beets thoroughly, then wrap them loosely in aluminum foil.
- Transfer the wrapped beets to a baking sheet. Roast for 50-60 minutes. Check the beets every 20 minutes or so. If they are starting to look dry or are scorching on the bottoms, dribble a tablespoon of water over the beets before re-wrapping. Beets are done when a fork or skewer slides easily to the middle of the beet. Small beets will cook more quickly than large beets.
- Let the beets cool enough to handle. Hold one of the beets in a paper towel and use the edges of the paper to rub the skin away. The skin should peel away easily; if it doesn't, the beets likely need to cook for a little longer. Peel the remaining beets and then slice them into wedges.
- Combine the arugula, beet wedges, farro, shaved fennel, avocado and goat cheese on a large serving platter and drizzle with basil vinaigrette. Sprinkle the pepitas on top and serve immediately.
Notes
- The best part of this salad is using up leftovers! Throw in anything you have. You can even pre-roast the beets so that all salad ingredients are ready to go at a moment's notice.
