Beet Salad on a Stick

Ingredients

2 beets
2 cups arugula
1 log of goat cheese
1/2 cup California Walnuts
honey balsamic vinaigrette:
1/3 cup olive oil
3 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
2 Tbsp dijon mustard
1 Tbsp honey
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Start by roasting your beets. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Slice the tops off your beets close to the root and give them a good scrub. Then loosely wrap the beets in foil and roast them for 50-60 minutes.
Let the beets cool, then use a paper towel to rub the peel off.
Then slice the beets into rounds, then quarter slice the rounds.
Then ready your ingredients and skewer the ingredients like an assembly line.
Start with two quarters of beet, a bunch of arugula, then a slice of goat cheese.
Top the salad sticks with chopped California Walnuts and a drizzle of honey balsamic vinaigrette.
Enjoy!
