Delicious and eye-catching sweet side dish.
Ingredients:
  • 4 medium beets (about 1 lb)
  • 4 cups mixed spring greens
  • 2 nectarines, sliced
  • 1/4 cup crumbled chèvre (goat) cheese or Brie cheese (1 oz)
  • 2 tablespoons walnuts, toasted*
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons orange juice
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 425°F. Prepare the beets by trimming the greens, leaving 1/2 inch of the stem intact. Make sure not to cut or trim the root. Thoroughly wash the beets. Wrap them tightly in a double layer of foil and roast on a cookie sheet for 1 to 1 1/4 hours until they are tender. Once the beets have cooled, peel them, discard the stems and root ends, and cut them into 1/2-inch-wide wedges.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients until well combined.
  • In a large bowl, mix mixed greens with half of the dressing. Divide the greens among 4 salad plates. Top each salad with beets, nectarines, cheese, and walnuts. Drizzle the remaining dressing over each salad and serve right away.
