Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
- Spread the beets on a baking sheet. In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, rosemary and some salt and pepper. Reserve one-quarter of the dressing for the salad and pour the rest over the beets. Roast until the beets are tender, 45 to 50 minutes.
- While the beets are cooking, heat 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Put the flour, eggs and breadcrumbs in separate shallow bowls. Coat the goat cheese slices first in the flour, then in the egg, then in the breadcrumbs. Fry the slices until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
- Whisk the mustard and sugar into the reserved dressing, then pour over the greens in a large bowl and toss to coat. Divide the greens among 6 plates, add the beets on top and place 2 fried goat cheese slices on top.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, choose tender young beets with vibrant greens. If the greens are wilted or yellowed, they may be too old and tough.
- When roasting the beets, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Roast the beets until they are tender when pierced with a fork, but not mushy. Overcooked beets will lose their flavor and texture.
- While the beets are roasting, prepare the vinaigrette. This will give the flavors time to meld.
- Once the beets are roasted, let them cool slightly before peeling and slicing them. This will make them easier to handle.
- To assemble the salad, layer the roasted beets, greens, goat cheese, and walnuts on a platter. Drizzle with the vinaigrette and serve immediately.
