Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium beets
- 1 large mango
- 6 cups mixed greens
- 1 cup feta cheese
- 0.5 cup walnuts
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons orange juice
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash the beets thoroughly and wrap each one individually in aluminum foil.
Place the wrapped beets on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 45-50 minutes or until tender when pierced with a knife.
While the beets are roasting, prepare the vinaigrette by whisking together olive oil, orange juice, lemon juice, honey, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
Toast the walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the beets are roasted, allow them to cool slightly. Then, using a paper towel or your hands, gently peel off the skins. Slice the peeled beets into thin wedges or cubes.
Peel and slice the mango into thin strips or cubes.
In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens, roasted beets, mango, toasted walnuts, and crumbled feta cheese.
Drizzle the citrus vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to combine.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Roasted Beets and Mango Salad!
