Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Wrap the beets in aluminum foil and roast them for about 45-60 minutes, or until tender.
- Allow beets to cool, then peel and slice them.
- In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, sliced beets, and crumbled goat cheese.

- Drizzle the dressing over the salad, and toss gently to combine.

Notes
Use small beets for faster roasting and more even slices. Store roasted beets up to four days in the fridge. Add greens just before serving to avoid wilting.
