Ingredients

  • Lettuce - I used a spring mix
  • 1 - 2 small beets - leaves removed
  • Pummelo - peeled, sliced
  • Goat Cheese
  • Maple Pecans - you can also substitute walnuts, pistachios or crunchy nut of your choice. I liked the sweetness that the maple pecans added.

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees
  2. Place each beet individually on a slice aluminum foil and either spray with olive oil or pour in a small amount. Wrap tightly. Bake for 40-50 minutes.
  3. When the beets are done, allow them to cool slightly before removing the “skin”. Cut into desired sizes for your salad.
  4. Cut pummelo.
  5. Place a bed of greens down, top with roasted beets, pummelo slices, pecans, and goat cheese.
  6. Enjoy!
