Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
- Scrub the beets with a vegetable brush and wrap each one in foil. Place on a cookie sheet to catch the juices and roast in the oven for about 50 minutes until tender.
- Unwrap the beets and place them in a medium bowl. Cut into 1-inch pieces right in the bowl, touching the beets minimally as they'll stain your fingers and everything else (which is why it's easiest to cut them right in the bowl instead of on a cutting board).
- Whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, and chopped fresh oregano. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Pour half the vinaigrette over the beets and gently toss. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour and up to 24 hours.
- Swish red onion in a bowl of cold water and rinse to remove any bitterness. Add more water and a few cubes of ice. Refrigerate for an hour or so.
- Toss greens in remaining vinaigrette and divide between four separate places. Top with beets and add a coin of goat cheese. Sprinkle with red onion and top with a sprinkling of fresh ground pepper and a few extra bits of fresh oregano, if you have it.

Steps:
- Whisk oil and vinegar to blend in small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and let stand at room temperature.)
- Boil beets in medium pot of salted water until tender, about 30 minutes. Cool beets slightly. Peel beets and cut into 1/2-inch cubes.
- Meanwhile, arrange endive on platter. Cut 1 tomato into 8 wedges and space evenly around edge of salad. Cut remaining tomato into 1/2-inch cubes. Mound tomato cubes and beet cubes in center of endive. Sprinkle capers, then grated eggs over center. Spoon enough dressing over salad to coat well.
Tips:
- Choose fresh vegetables: Select endives with tightly packed, crisp leaves and beets with vibrant red color. Fresh red onions add a nice sharp flavor to the salad.
- Slice vegetables thinly: This will help them absorb the dressing better and make them easier to eat.
- Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will give you clean, even slices and prevent the vegetables from tearing.
- Make the dressing in advance: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop. You can store the dressing in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Toss the salad just before serving: This will prevent the leaves from wilting.
- Add crumbled goat cheese or feta cheese for a creamy, tangy flavor.
- Garnish the salad with fresh herbs like chives, parsley, or dill for a pop of color and flavor.
Conclusion:
Endive, beet, and red onion salad is a colorful, crunchy, and refreshing dish that is perfect for any occasion.
