Golden Beet And Mixed Green Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk the vinegar, orange juice and mustard in a medium bowl until smooth. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil, whisking constantly, until well combined and thick and season with salt and pepper.
• Mix the baby arugula and kale together in a large bowl. Slice the beets very thin using a mandolin and add to the greens with the pistachios. Pour the vinaigrette over top and toss gently to combine.

Steps:

• Place greens in a large bowl. Drizzle with vinaigrette; toss to coat. Top with beets, cheese and pumpkin seeds. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wrap beets in parchment, then foil, and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast until tender, about 60 minutes. Let cool completely. Peel and cut beets into 1/2-inch dice. Transfer to a large bowl.
• Prepare an ice-water bath. Cook haricots verts in boiling salted water until bright green and crisp tender, about 2 minutes. Transfer to ice-water bath, and drain. Cut beans diagonally into thirds, and add to beets.
• Mix vinegar, shallot, and mustard in a small bowl. Add oil in a slow, steady stream, whisking until emulsified. Toss with vegetables, and season with salt and pepper. Stir in torn basil and goat cheese. Garnish with basil leaves.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place a sheet pan on the lower oven rack.
• Place beets on a sheet of aluminum foil. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil. Fold edges of the foil around the beets to make a sealed pouch.
• Place pouch on the center rack of the oven, so the sheet pan below can catch any drippings. Roast until beets are tender when pierced with a knife, 50 to 60 minutes. Remove beets from the oven. Open the pouch and allow to cool.
• Rub a paper towel on the cooled beets to remove skin. Cut into small pieces. Drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Chop grapefruit segments. Transfer fruit and any accumulated juices into a small bowl.
• Combine mustard greens, beet greens, romaine lettuce, chopped grapefruit and juice, red onion, 1/4 cup olive oil, garlic, and lemon juice in a large bowl; mix well. Season with salt and pepper.
• Divide greens among 6 salad bowls. Top with roasted beets and garnish with goat cheese and dill.

Steps:

• Rinse and peel the beets preferably with a vegetable peeler. Slice the beets and place them in a pot. Fill the pot with water until the beets are just covered. Bring to a boil until fork tender but maintaining a slight firmness. Approx. 15-20 minutes. Let beets cool. Slice into half moons or quarters.
• Next, rinse a large tomato and slice into rounds or quarter slices and set aside.
• Spoon 1/2 cup of peach preserves into a microwaveable dish. Warm for 12 seconds. Stir. Remove dish from microwave.
• Add salt, pepper, balsamic vinegar and whisk while drizzling in olive oil. Tip: The whisking method is used to emulsify, which evenly combines ingredients that contain an oil and a vinegar. Chill until ready to serve. If dressing settles too long it begins to separate. If this happens, whisk again before serving.
• Place mixed greens into a salad bowl along with beets, and tomatoes.
• Gently toss ingredients together and divide upon plates. Tip: Never dress a salad before service time. This ensures crisp greens instead of a soggy ensemble.
• Dress each serving conservatively but do not over dress. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Place the beets in a roasting pan and add water to a depth of 1/2 inch. Cover the pan with foil and bake until the beets are easily pierced with a fork, about 1 1/2 hours. Set the beets aside until they are cool enough to handle. Peel and rinse off any pieces of skin. Slice the beets into 1/2-inch-thick rounds, and then cut them into 1/4-inch-thick sticks. Let the beets cool to room temperature.
• Toss the beets with the rice vinegar, salt, and pepper. Add the olive oil and mustard and toss with the spinach. Garnish with the toasted walnuts and crumbled blue cheese.
• Make Ahead: You can roast the beets up to 3 days in advance; toss them just before serving.

Steps:

• Roast the beets: Put them in a baking dish in one layer (if some beets are larger, halve them so they will cook evenly). Add about 2 inches water to the pan and cover tightly with foil. Bake at 375 degrees for at least an hour, or up to one and a half hours, until fork tender. Remove the foil, pour off the liquid and let cool for a few minutes, then peel while still slightly warm. Cut into wedges and set aside.
• Cut beet greens into 1-inch ribbons, then wash well 3 times in abundant cold water to remove any sand or grit. Bring a large pot salted water to boil. Add the greens and cook briefly till wilted, about 2 minutes. Drain, cool under running water, then squeeze out excess water.
• In a dry pan over medium heat, toast the coriander and cumin seeds until fragrant and just lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Grind to a coarse powder in a mortar or spice mill.
• Make the vinaigrette: Put the onion, garlic and vinegar in a small bowl and leave for 5 minutes or so, then whisk in the remaining ingredients.
• Make the yogurt sauce: Put the yogurt in small bowl. Add the garlic, salt and pepper, cayenne, cumin-coriander mixture, mint and olive oil.
• Season the beet wedges lightly with salt and dress with half the vinaigrette. In a separate bowl, lightly salt the greens and dress with remaining vinaigrette. Arrange dressed beets and greens on a platter and top with a little smear of the yogurt sauce. Sprinkle with dill, and pass the rest of the yogurt sauce at the table.
