Ingredients
For the Salad
- 16-18 oz beetroots, scrubbed clean (about 2-3 beets, depending on their size)
- 2 navel oranges
- 2 oz mixed greens (about 2 tightly packed cup lettuce)
- fresh mint
- 2 tablespoons chopped roasted walnuts
For the Dressing
- 2 tablespoons orange juice
- 1 1/2 teaspoons white wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon orange zest
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon minced shallot (optional)
- 1/8 teaspoon salt (to taste)
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 390°F (200°C). Trim off the top of your beets and wrap them in foil. Once the oven is ready, roast the beets from 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes, or until they are tender. Cooking time will depend on their size.
- After roasting the beets, let them cool and chill them in the refrigerator until you want to put together the salad.
- When you are ready to prepare the salad, peel the oranges and cut into segments. Then peel and cut beets into thin slices.
- Whisk together all ingredients to make the dressing. Taste and adjust to your liking. Toss the beets with about ⅓ of the dressing.
- Place mixed greens on serving plates. Then arrange beet slices on top of the lettuce together with orange slices, mint, and roasted walnuts. Drizzle the remaining dressing and serve.

Notes
- This salad can serve 2-3 people. You may tweak the ratio of orange juice, vinegar and olive oil to your liking.
- A quick way to mix the dressing is to put all ingredients into a jar. Then tightly seal it and shake until everything is well combined.
