Roasted Beet Salad with Oranges, Beet Greens and Goat Cheese

SONY DSC

I’ve been trying to get rid of all that will potentially go slimy before we leave – for New York! New York!! It’s been booked for weeks, but I’m just realizing it now. We’re going to New York! All 3 of us. In a little over 24 hours. Yowzah.

But first, I have muchas work to get done, and we have to eat our beet greens.

We grew beets in the back this year, but the greens flourished far more than the beets themselves. (Ditto the radishes, which were virtually nonexistent underground, but high and leafy up top.) I’ve cooked with beet greens before, but given the choice I’d pick kale or chard. However. We had plenty that were about as fresh as local (the 100 foot diet?) as you can get. I came across it here, searching for beet green inspiration, but it seemed naked without the goat cheese. I’m not sure I could eat a roasted beet salad without.

W was not impressed. I recalled myself at his age and older, so bummed out that my mom made fish for dinner. And stewed tomatoes. Why would any grownup do such a thing, when they have full control over the decision-making-process every mealtime?

Roasted Beet Salad with Oranges, Beet Greens and Goat Cheese

AuthorJulie

Yields1 Serving

6 medium beets, greens attached
1 small sweet onion, thinly sliced
2 large oranges, peeled and halved, then sliced
1/3 cup red wine or balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup canola or extra-virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tsp. brown sugar or honey
1 tsp. grainy mustard
1/2 cup(ish) crumbled soft goat cheese
freshly ground pepper

1

Preheat oven to 400°F. Trim greens from beets. Cut off and discard stems. Coarsely chop leaves and reserve. Wrap each beet in foil. Place beets directly on oven rack and roast until tender when pierced with fork, about 1 hour. Cool and peel beets, then slice or cut each into wedges.

2

Cook beet greens in a pot of boiling water just until tender, about 2 minutes. Drain well and squeeze to remove excess moisture. Put them into a bowl with the beets, onions and orange slices. Whisk vinegar, oil, garlic, sugar, mustard and orange zest; add to beet mixture with goat cheese and toss to coat.

3

Season with pepper, and let stand at room temperature 1 hour before serving.

    Even though this might not be your favourite, it’s mine (or one of them). What could be better than beets with their greens and goat cheese?
    Have a wonderful trip, and eat in the delis and cafes to tell us about. 😀

    Have fun in NYC! It’s a great place to visit.
    I’m lucky enough to live only a few hours away.
    Be careful of the bed bugs. They are everywhere in NYC, not just the hotels, but the subway, theaters, and some stores! There have been articles in the papers weekly about the outbreak.

    Yes, New York is quite the city all right. After each of the four times I have visited, I wake up in the morning after returning to my beloved Calgary and thank my lucky stars that I don’t live there.
