Beets with Walnuts, Goat Cheese, and Baby Greens 2

Pair roasted beets and goat cheese  with crisp baby greens and crunchy walnuts for a salad that almost explodes with flavor and color.  You can prepare the beets up to two days in advance.

How to Make It

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375°.

Step 2

Leave root and 1-inch stem on beets; scrub with a brush. Place beets and 1 cup water in a 13 x 9-inch glass or ceramic baking dish; cover tightly with foil. Bake at 375° for 1 hour and 30 minutes or until tender. Cool beets slightly. Trim off roots; rub off skins. Cut beets into wedges; cool completely.

Step 3

Place greens and parsley in a large bowl; toss. Combine vinegar, salt, and pepper, stirring with a whisk. Gradually drizzle in oil, stirring constantly with a whisk. Drizzle dressing over greens mixture; toss gently. Arrange 1 cup salad on each of 8 plates; top evenly with beets. Top each serving with 1 tablespoon cheese and 1 1/2 teaspoons nuts.
