My Roasted Beet and Goat Cheese Salad was born from a dinner invite to a friends’ house who cannot eat grains. I wanted to make a hearty side dish that would be filling and satisfying. Having been to the local farmer’s market the day before I had two bunches of beautiful beets that would be perfect. As the farmer who sold me these organic beauties told me, the combination of roasted beets and goat cheese is so perfect it brings tears to his eyes. That my friends is true! Delicious and full of flavour his beets taste like candy when roasted making them ideal to pair with greens, crunchy almonds and savoury goat cheese. Topped with a sweet and slightly acidic dressing all of your taste buds will be delighted with the result. The best part is this salad is easy to make any time of year. While it takes a bit of prep and advanced planning don’t let that deter you it’s very easy.<\/p>\n
