Green Salad with Roasted Beets and Fruit

This is refreshing.

A clean, healthy meal.

A fresh start after a weekend of milkshakes, french fries, cupcakes and pizza.

While that was very fun, I’m in need of this. This salad is fresh, bright, sweet, crunchy and fulfilling.

Even though it’s light, the varying flavors and and textures make you feel satisfied.

Eating this salad makes me feel like I’m getting both my mind and body back on track.

This week, I’m going to need a lot of these salads.

Method:
for one salad

A large handful of mixed greens
1 beet
A handful of blueberries
3 large strawberries, sliced
A small handful of chopped pecans
Goat cheese

Preheat oven to 400*. Wash and dry the beet. Pierce with a fork and roast until soft, about an hour. Once roasted, let cool and peel off the skin. Slice the beet.
Place greens, blueberries, strawberries, beets, pecans and goat cheese in a bowl. Use as much goat cheese as you please.

*Note: I roast a lot of beets at once so that when I want some, they are ready and sliced.

Enjoy!
