For the Dressing:

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400℉. Arrange beet slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until tender and lightly caramelized. Let cool slightly.
  • In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, roasted beet slices, crumbled goat cheese, and chopped walnuts.
  • Drizzle with vinaigrette, season with salt and pepper, and toss gently to combine. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use red or golden beets; both work beautifully here.
  • Toast walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3–5 minutes until fragrant.
  • You can add orange segments or a drizzle of honey for an added flavor.
