How to cook deliciously - Roasted Beet Salad with Arugula, Pistachios, and Goat Cheese

1. Stage

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Wrap each beet tightly in tinfoil and roast on a sheet pan in the oven about an hour. When a sharp knife slides into beets with little resistance, remove them and set aside.

2. Stage

When beets are cool enough to handle, trim ends and peel off the skin with your fingers. (If desired, wear rubber gloves to avoid stained fingers.) Slice beets into thick wedges, and sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Set aside.

3. Stage

In a small bowl, combine lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Slowly pour in olive oil, whisking until vinaigrette comes together. Taste and add more salt, pepper, lemon juice, or olive oil as needed.

4. Stage

Fill a large serving bowl with arugula and toss with half the lemon vinaigrette. Arrange beets on top, alternating red and yellow slices and making sure to use an even amount of both colors. Add dollops of goat cheese and sprinkle with pistachios. Drizzle with remaining lemon vinaigrette and serve. Looking for vegetable recipes?
