BEET SALAD
Ingredients:
-1 Large, or 2 small beets. Red, or gold. Sliced, or diced
-4 oz mixed greens, or 1 head of romaine lettuce heart, Chopped
-1 small or ½ large cucumber, peeled, chopped
-half a red onion, sliced
-4 oz Goat cheese (can get fancy here. Truffled, peppered, any kind you like.), Crumbled

-1 teaspoon Lemon pepper spice (or to taste)
-1 teaspoon Garlic powder ( or to taste)
-Salt & Pepper to taste
​
Directions
-
In a medium pot with a lid, add 2-3 inches of water so the beets are not fully submerged. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Keep an eye on the water level, if too low add more. Beet should not be submerged in water so it steams instead.
-
In a large salad bowl, combine chopped lettuce, sliced onions, and diced cucumbers.
-
Once beets are soft enough to easily penetrate deeply with a fork, they’re done. Remove from heat and run under cold water. (careful theyre hot! The best way to peel the skin is with your hands while running the beets under cold water.)
-
Slice or cube the beets and place onto of salad.
-
Crumble goats cheese and place on top of the beets and mustard on top of cheese.
-
Add spices, lemon juice, olive oil, salt + pepper.
