Roasted Beet and Goat Cheese Salad
The most flavorful roasted beet and goat cheese salad, full of flavor with walnuts, roasted beets, fresh chevre goat cheese and homemade balsamic dressing.
Ingredients
- 2 heads romain lettuce (if they are the small heads, two will work, you can also use 1 large head of romaine)
- 5-6 large red or golden beets
- 6 oz goat cheese or chevre
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
- 8 oz homemade balsamic dressing(you can find that link below)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees.
- Wash your beets and drizzle with olive oil.
- Lay them on foil, and then cover with foil and crimp the edges to seal them in. Roast in the oven for about 30 minutes.
- You should be able to pierce with a knife and having easily go in.
- Once they are done, let them cool completely and then peel and slice them up.
- While the beets are roasting make the balsamic dressing.
- Wash and chop your romaine lettuce.
- Fill your bowl with lettuce, beets, sprinkle pieces of goat cheese all over the salad, and then toss walnuts on top.
- You can drizzle the dressing over the top, or you can serve it up individually and let each person pour it on themselves.
- We like to pour it on as we serve it so that if we have any salad left over, we can store it in the fridge separately and not have soggy salad. It will keep longer in the fridge without the dressing on it.
