Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 bunches baby red beets, scrubbed (8 total; greens reserved for another use)
2 bunches baby Chioggia beets, scrubbed (8 total; greens reserved for another use)
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar
1 bunch Red Russian kale, trimmed and torn into pieces (7 cups)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
4 ounces mild goat cheese

Steps:

  • Place beets in a large pot, and cover with water. Add enough salt so that the water tastes like the ocean, about 2 tablespoons. Cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer until skins slip easily off beets, about 15 minutes. Drain. When cool enough to handle, peel beets. Cut red beets into quarters lengthwise and Chioggias into 1/2-inch rounds. Combine beets, 2 tablespoons oil, and the vinegar, and gently toss.
  • Place kale in a large bowl, and bruise very roughly with hands. Add 1 tablespoon oil, season with salt and pepper, and massage into leaves 1 minute. Add lemon juice, and toss.
  • To serve, make a bed of kale on a platter, and scatter beets on top. Crumble goat cheese into chunks, and scatter over salad. Season with pepper.

Time 2h50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 pound beets, ends trimmed
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
1/3 cup pine nuts
4 ounces goat cheese
4 cups baby greens
4 cups baby spinach
Tarragon Dressing, recipe follows
4 very thin slices red onion, separated
1/4 cup rice vinegar
2 teaspoons dried tarragon
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Wash and dry the beets and trim off the ends. Take a large sheet of aluminum foil, 12 by18, and double it over. Put the beets in the middle, drizzle with olive oil and season with the salt and pepper. Bring the sides of the foil up around the beets to make a pouch. Put in the hot oven and bake until the beets are tender, about 1 hour 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool. When cool enough to handle, gently peel off the skin and slice into julienne pieces, about 2 inches long by 1/2-inch thick. Chill until ready to use.
  • Lightly toast the pine nuts in a small saute pan over medium-high heat for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove to a plate or small bowl and cool. Slice the goat cheese into 1/2-inch rounds and press the pine nuts onto both sides. Chill until service.
  • When ready to serve, lightly toss the baby greens and the spinach together in a large bowl and dress the edge of your serving bowl with 1/4 cup of the Tarragon Dressing. Toss the greens and then top with the beets and the goat cheese rounds. Drizzle with additional dressing and serve immediately.
  • In a small bowl or glass jar, combine all the ingredients, except the olive oil. Whisk until well h well combined, then slowly drizzle in the olive oil. This recipe works really well with a stick blender.

BEET, AVOCADO AND GOAT CHEESE SALAD



Beet, Avocado and Goat Cheese Salad image

My new favorite salad. For those of you who are afraid of beets (like I was until just recently!) this is the salad for you to experiment with.... The earthiness of the beets is balanced soooo nicely by the goat cheese, balsamic and honey. Throw in the avocado and dried fruit and what you have is ridiculous deliciousness!!!! So, so, so darn good. *Original recipe adapted from a recipe found on recipegirl. AND....**Cooking time includes time to roast and cool beets.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h40m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons shallots, minced
1 tablespoon honey
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
6 medium beets, roasted and quartered
6 cups arugula (baby spinach or salad greens work well too)
1/2 cup walnuts, toasted and coarsely chopped
1/4 cup dried cherries or 1/4 cup dried blueberries
1/2 avocado, large, peeled, pitted and sliced thinly
3 ounces goat cheese, fresh, soft, and crumbled

Steps:

  • Scrub beets to remove all excess dirt and dry with clean cloth. Moderately coat the beets in extra virgin olive oil and wrap individually in foil.
  • Roast beets in 350 degree oven for approximately 1 hour.
  • While beets are roasting, prepare dressing by combining all ingredients, whisking and setting aside for flavors to meld.
  • Toast walnuts in a small pan over medium heat. Remove from heat once toasted (approx. 5 minutes) and set aside to cool.
  • Remove beets from oven, remove foil and place in bowl to cool~ approximately 30-45 minutes.
  • Rub olive oil into hands and with a pairing knife, peel beets. The juice will stain your hands if you do not continue to rub hands down with oil, or wear gloves.
  • Quarter the beets- or if they are large, slice into 1 inch chunks and reserve.
  • Prepare salad by combining salad greens of choice, beets and avocado with a small amount of dressing. Continue to add dressing to your liking.
  • Plate salads and top with dried fruit (cranberries, cherries or blueberries) and crumble goat cheese on top.
  • Savor every single bit of this heavenly bit of delicious-ness. Mmmm-mmm-mmmm!

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh, organic beets and kale. Look for beets that are firm and have smooth skin, and kale that is dark green and has no signs of wilting.
  • If you don't have a spiralizer, you can use a knife to thinly slice the beets. Just be sure to slice them as evenly as possible so that they cook evenly.
  • To save time, you can make the dressing ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to a week. Just be sure to whisk it well before using.
  • If you're not a fan of goat cheese, you can substitute another type of cheese, such as feta or blue cheese.
  • This salad is also delicious with roasted nuts, such as almonds or walnuts. Just be sure to add them after the salad has been dressed so that they don't get soggy.

Conclusion:

This beet and kale salad with goat cheese is a healthy and delicious side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's packed with nutrients, including vitamin C, potassium, and fiber. And it's also a good source of antioxidants, which can help protect your cells from damage. So next time you're looking for a healthy and satisfying salad, give this recipe a try.
