BEET SALAD WITH GOAT CHEESE, GREEN APPLE, AND HONEY
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place red beets in a baking dish just large enough to hold them in a single layer and add enough water to come three quarters of the way up sides of beets. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon salt and drizzle with grapeseed oil. Cover with foil and bake until tender and easily pierced with a knife, about 1 hour. Transfer beets to a cutting board. When just cool enough to handle, remove skins, cut into 1/4-inch slices, and transfer to a bowl.
- Meanwhile, place baby beets in small saucepan and cover with 2 inches cold water. Add 1 teaspoon salt and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until tender and easily pierced with a knife, about 25 minutes. Drain beets; when just cool enough to handle, remove skins; cut into halves or wedges, depending on size; and transfer to another bowl.
- Whisk together honey, olive oil, and 3 tablespoons lemon juice; add 1 teaspoon salt and season with pepper. Reserve 1/4 cup dressing; divide remaining dressing between bowls of warm beets; toss beets to coat.
- Halve lemon and squeeze juice into a bowl of cold water; drop lemon halves in it. Peel apple, cut into small pieces (you should have about 1 cup), and submerge in lemon water. When ready to serve, drain apple and blot dry. Arrange beets on a serving platter and drizzle with reserved dressing. Top with apple, goat cheese, and sprouts and serve immediately.
GREEN APPLE AND BEET SALAD
This is a delicious recipe, ready in 2 minutes (really)! A nice, colourful change from the traditional salad. In the fall, use fresh beets and apples from local produce. I like to use Recipe# 367987 for the vinaigrette.

Steps:

Tips:
- Choose the right apples and beets: For the best flavor and texture, use crisp, tart apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp. Choose beets that are small and firm, with no blemishes.
- Use a mandoline slicer: A mandoline slicer will help you get thin, even slices of apples and beets. If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a sharp knife to slice them thinly.
- Marinate the apples and beets: Marinating the apples and beets in a mixture of lemon juice, olive oil, and herbs will help to enhance their flavor.
- Add some crunch: To add some extra crunch to the salad, consider adding some chopped walnuts or almonds.
- Make it a main course: This salad can easily be turned into a main course by adding some grilled chicken or fish.
