Apple Beet And Walnut Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Wash but do not trim the beets.
• Boil them until tender and remove them to cold water.
• (Or roast them, if you prefer.) When they are cool, peel them and cut them into 1 cm cubes or small slices.
• Mix the apple cider or juice, the walnut oil, the lemon juice, the vinegar and the spices in a small jar and shake well.
• Core and chop the apples.
• Wash, dry, and tear up the lettuce.
• Arrange it on plates with the apples, beets and nuts over it.
• Drizzle the dressing over the salads.

Steps:

• Put the beets in a saucepan with water to cover and season generously with salt. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook until fork tender, about 20 minutes. When the beets are cool enough to handle, peel them--the skins should slide right off with a bit of pressure from your fingers. If they don't, use a paring knife to scrape off any bits that stick. Cut each beet into bite-sized wedges.
• Whisk the vinegar with salt and pepper, to taste, in a large bowl. Whisk in the olive oil in a slow steady stream to make a dressing. Toss the cut beets in the dressing; set aside to marinate for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the nuts on a baking sheet and oven-toast, stirring once, until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Cool.
• Toss the arugula and escarole with the beets and divide among 4 plates. Scatter the walnuts and goat cheese on top. Serve.
