Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium-sized raw beetroot
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 4 cups mixed salad greens
- 4 ounces goat cheese
- 0.5 cup walnuts
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and peel the beetroot, then cut them into small wedges.
Place the beetroot wedges on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
Roast the beetroot in the preheated oven for about 35 to 40 minutes, or until they are tender and caramelized, turning once halfway through cooking.
While the beets are roasting, prepare the salad dressing by whisking together the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and lemon juice in a small bowl. Set aside.
In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the walnuts for about 3 to 5 minutes until they are lightly browned and fragrant. Remove from heat and let cool.
Once the beets are done roasting, let them cool slightly.
In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed salad greens and roasted beetroot.
Crumble the goat cheese over the salad and sprinkle the toasted walnuts on top.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and gently toss to combine.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Keto Roasted Beetroot Salad with Goat Cheese and Walnuts!
