Beet and Endive Salad with Walnuts image

This is a French classic. I add a small amount of goat cheese or feta to mine (in France they might use blue cheese, or no cheese), a tart contrast to the sweet beets.

This salad was just okay. The beets were a little bland and the endive was a bit too bitter. The dressing was also a little too oily. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This salad was a bit too sweet for my taste. The beets were roasted well, but the dressing was a bit too syrupy. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This salad was okay, but I've had better. The beets were a little too sweet for my taste and the endive was a bit too bitter. The dressing was also a little too oily. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my salad didn't turn out as good as I hoped. The beets were a little too hard and the dressing was too bland. I think I'll try again with a different recipe.
