Description

Nice summer salad with beets, fresh cherries, and goat cheese, just in time for summer.

Ingredients

  • FOR THE SALAD:
  • 8 whole Beets
  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • Salt And Pepper
  • 10 whole Cherries, Rainier Are Best
  • 2 Tablespoons Goat Cheese
  • FOR THE DRESSING:
  • 1 Tablespoon Champagne Vinegar
  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Honey

Preparation

Preheat oven to 375ºF. Wash beets and remove the leafy parts. Put beets in a foil pack and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast beets for about an hour, or until easily pierced with a knife.
Once cooled, peel and dice the beets.

Cut cherries in half and remove the pits. Arrange diced beets on a serving dish and sprinkle with cherries.

Whisk together the dressing ingredients. Add more honey if desired. Drizzle the dressing over the beets and cherries. I tried to get some of the dressing inside the cherries to add extra sweetness.

Top the salad with a generous dollop of goat cheese and dig in!
