Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds beets, about 6 to 8 medium
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 to 4 ounces salad greens, e.g., arugula, spring mix, green leaf
  • 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup pecans, halves, toasted
  • 3 to 4 ounces goat cheese, crumbled

Instructions

  • Roast the Beets: Trim the beets and scrub vigorously. Arrange them in a foil-lined Dutch oven (lined to prevent staining) or a large baking dish, and toss them with the oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover the pot with a lid or foil and roast at 400°F for about 45 minutes to 1 hour or until tender. Test with a skewer or knife. Remove the beets and let them stand until they are cool enough to handle. Peel and dice the beets and set them aside.
  • Make the Dressing: In a jar with a screw-top, combine the vinegar, oil, mustard, and one pinch each of salt and pepper or to taste. Put the lid on and shake until well blended. Alternatively, whisk the dressing ingredients in a bowl.
