BEETS AND GOAT CHEESE ON A BED OF SPINACH



Beets and Goat Cheese on a Bed of Spinach image

I was inspired by Wolfgang Puck's iconic goat cheese and beet napoleon to make something similar, but decided on a dish that is much less elaborate. If you have time to spare, you could stack the beet slices and goat cheese rather than crumbling the goat cheese over the beets.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
Salt to taste
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

4 medium beets, roasted
2 ounces goat cheese, crumbled
2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon, chives, parsley or a combination
1 tablespoon pine nuts, lightly toasted
1 6-ounce bag baby spinach

Steps:

  • Make the dressing. In a small bowl or measuring cup combine the vinegars and salt to taste. Whisk in the mustard and the olive oil. Set aside.
  • Toss the spinach with 3 tablespoons of the dressing. Line a platter or individual plates.
  • Skin the beets and cut in half lengthwise (stem to root), then slice into thin half moons. Place the sliced halves on top of the spinach and fan them out. Drizzle on the remaining dressing and sprinkle on the herbs. Top each fan of beets with crumbled goat cheese and pine nuts, and serve.

Provided by Natasha Bull

Categories     Salad

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 medium beets (peeled & grated)
2 pears (cored & sliced)
5 ounces fresh baby spinach
4 ounces crumbled goat cheese ((or to taste))
2 tablespoons chopped red onion ((or to taste))
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1/2 tablespoon honey
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 clove garlic (minced)
Salt & pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • Make the dressing by combining the dressing ingredients in a drinking glass, small bowl, or jar. Stir/shake well. Give it a taste and adjust ingredients as needed (e.g. add more honey or vinegar).
  • Peel the beets and cut off the ends. Using a regular box grater, grate them. Prep other salad ingredients and add them to a large bowl. The beets will turn everything pink, so if you don't want that, toss the salad THEN add the cheese and pears on top like I did.
  • I like to season the salad itself as well as the dressing with salt & pepper, so add some salt & pepper and then toss with the dressing (shake/stir well first). Serve immediately.
