BEET AND ENDIVE SALAD WITH WALNUTS
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.

Tips:
- Choose the right beets: Look for beets that are firm and smooth, with no blemishes or bruises. Smaller beets tend to be sweeter and more tender.
- Roast the beets properly: Roasting brings out the natural sweetness of beets. Toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and roast at 400°F for 45-60 minutes, or until tender.
- Use a variety of greens: Endive, arugula, and spinach are all great choices for this salad. You can also add other vegetables, such as roasted carrots or parsnips.
- Make a flavorful dressing: A simple vinaigrette made with olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and honey is a great way to dress this salad. You can also add other herbs or spices, such as thyme, rosemary, or cumin.
- Garnish with nuts and seeds: Toasted walnuts, almonds, or pumpkin seeds add a nice crunchy texture and flavor to this salad. You can also add crumbled goat cheese or feta cheese for a creamy touch.
