Beet And Arugula Salad (with Sweet Rosemary Vinaigrette)

This beet and arugula salad is full of vibrant color, bold flavor, and is super nourishing. The combination of sweet beets, peppery arugula, creamy goat cheese, and crunchy pecans is honestly one of my all-time favorites. I know you are going to love it!

Ingredients
  

For The Salad

  • 4 large beets I like a mix of red and golden beets
  • 2 tbsp 100% Extra Virgin Olive Oil adjust accordingly
  • 1/4 tsp salt or to taste
  • pepper to taste
  • Organic Arugula
  • 2 tbsp Goat Cheese crumbled (add more or less to preference)
  • 2 tbsp Pecans chopped (add more or less to preference)
  • 1 Avocado
  • Balsamic Vinegar optional (we love the Napa Valley brand linked here)

For The Salad Dressing

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F
  • Cut the beets into wedges. Toss them with olive oil, salt and pepper, then spread them out in a single layer on a baking sheet
    4 large beets, 2 tbsp 100% Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 1/4 tsp salt, pepper
  • Roast for 30-40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the beets are tender, carmalized, and golden brown. The cooking time will depend on how large your beets are.
  • While the beets are roasting, whisk together all of the ingredients for the vinagrette: olive oil, vinager, honey, garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper.
    3 tbsp 100% extra virgin olive oil, 2 tbsp white wine vinegar, 1/2-1 tbsp raw honey, 1 clove garlic, 1 tsp fresh rosemary, salt & pepper
  • Once the beets are finished roasting, let them cool slightly. Then toss them with about half of the salad dressing. Save the rest for the salad
  • Now assemble your salad either in a large bowl or in individual bowls. Add the arugula first, then layer on the roasted beets, pecans, goat cheese, avocado, and finish with the vinaigrette. We also like to top the salad with some balsamic vinegar.
