Ingredients
Method
- Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F. Scrub the beets clean and trim off the tops and roots. Wrap each beet individually in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet. Roast for 45-60 minutes until tender when pierced with a fork.
- Step 2: While the beets roast, prepare the other components. Peel and cube the mangoes, wash and dry the arugula, and thinly slice the red onion. Toast the nuts if they aren't already toasted.
- Step 3: Once the beets are cool enough to handle, peel them and cut into wedges or cubes.
- Step 4: Prepare the dressing by whisking together orange juice, olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
- Step 5: Arrange the arugula on a serving platter or individual plates. Top with roasted beets, mango cubes, red onion slices, crumbled goat cheese, and toasted nuts. Drizzle the dressing over everything just before serving.
- Step 6: Toss gently if desired, or serve composed style.
Notes
Roast beets ahead of time for quick assembly. Dress the salad right before serving to prevent wilting. Use room temperature beets for better flavor integration.
