Spinach Salad with Goat Cheese and Beets

Spinach Salad with Goat Cheese and Beets
 
Since it’s beginning to warm up, we are busting out an old favorite for this week’s Market Fresh Cooking recommendation. It’s seasonal, it’s easy and it’s delicious – because that is how we roll!
 
Ingredients
  • 1-1/4 pounds fresh beets
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons honey
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 5 cups fresh baby spinach
  • 2 ounces fresh goat cheese, crumbled
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts, toasted
 
Directions
  • Scrub beets and trim tops to 1 in. Place in a Dutch oven and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer until tender, 30-60 minutes. Remove from the water; cool. Peel beets and cut into 1-in. pieces.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the vinegar, honey, mustard, salt and pepper. Slowly whisk in oil until blended.
  • Place spinach in a salad bowl. Drizzle with dressing; toss to coat. Top with beets, goat cheese and walnuts. If desired, sprinkle with additional pepper.
