Beet Salad with Goat Cheese and Walnuts

Who would have thought my family would be such beet-fanatics?! Not only are the delicious, but they are SO good for you. 

We are also crazy for goat cheese, so this recipe was just perfect.

I used:

2 Organic Beets

Organic Kale

Boston Lettuce

Organic Walnuts

Organic 100% Maple Syrup

EVOO

Organic Balsamic Vinegar

Fresh Goat Cheese

Thoroughly wash the beets.

Place them in a pot and fill with enough water to cover them.

Bring to a boil and cook for about 20 minutes.

Drain and let cool.

Once the beets are cool, peel or cut off the otter layer and slice into cubes or strips.

Meanwhile, heat a couple turns of EVOO in a small skillet.

Add the walnuts and brown.

Add in about 1 Tbs of maple syrup and let bubble and brown.

Tear apart and place the kale and boston lettuce in a large bowl.

Add the beets and walnuts with the liquid from the skillet.

Toss with the balsamic and top with crumbled goat cheese.
