Ingredients

  • 1 bunch Organic Chioggia Beets
  • 1 bunch Organic Golden Beets
  • 1 Humboldt Fog Cheese ( you may substitute a soft, surface ripened goat milk cheese)
  • 2 tablespoons Honey
  • 3 tablespoons Balsamic Vinegar
  • 4 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1/4 cup Pistachio Nut Meats, crushed

Instructions

  1. Cut greens from beets. Discard or reuse greens. Boil or steam beets until a knife can pierce through them. Under room temp water, rub off skins and set beets aside to dry.
  2. Mix the vinegar and honey with a whisk until blended. Heat a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat.
  3. Cube the beets and add to the bowl. Cover the beets thoroughly with the mixture and add to skillet, leaving any extra liquid in the bowl. Cook for 2-3 minutes, moving the beets around the pan often. Remove from heat and set aside.
  4. Add olive oil to the extra liquid in the bowl and mix well. Plate the salad greens and dress each plate with the mixture from the bowl. Top with beets and a thin slice of the Humboldt Fog Cheese. Add a tablespoon of nuts to the salad and serve immediately.
