Ingredients

  • 4 medium beets, washed and trimmed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 5 oz mixed greens
  • 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup candied pecans
  • 1/4 cup crumbled goat cheese
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic glaze

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Drizzle the beets with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Wrap each beet in foil and place on the baking sheet. Roast for 45-50 minutes or until fork-tender.
  4. Let the beets cool slightly, then peel and cut into wedges.
  5. In a large bowl, arrange the mixed greens. Top with red onion slices, beet wedges, pecans, and goat cheese.
  6. Drizzle with remaining olive oil and balsamic glaze before serving.

Notes

You can roast the beets ahead of time and store them in the fridge for up to 3 days. Use feta instead of goat cheese if preferred.
