Farm Fresh Arugula And Golden Beet Salad
- 5 cups fresh arugula, rinsed and spun dry
- 5 golden beets, cooked, peeled, chilled and in wedges
- 2/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
- Salad dressing:
- 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 Tbsp rice wine vinegar
- 1-2 cloves garlic, crushed
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp honey
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- Do ahead:
- Bake the beets at 350F in a foil-covered pan with enough water to cover the bottom third of the beets for 45 minutes or until tender. Cool, peel and chill until ready to toss and serve salad.
- This can be done the day before and beets kept in a sealed container in fridge.
- Rinse and spin-dry the arugula. Place in large, wide salad bowl with golden beets cut in 1/2" wide wedges. Sprinkle with feta cheese and toss with dressing to taste. Serve.
- This is delicious with a grilled chicken breast on a hot summer's eve with crusty bread and a cool glass of Chardonnay.
