Ingredients
  

Salad Ingredients
  • 3 medium beets roasted, peeled and cut into wedges
  • 2 T extra virgin olive oil
  • 8- ounces mission figs fresh, cut in half
  • 3- ounces prosciutto cut into bite-sized pieces
  • ½ pint of cherry tomatoes cut in half
  • 4- ounces feta cheese crumbled
  • ¼ C pistachios roasted and salted
  • 5- ounces mixed lettuce I used a mix of arugula, baby spinach and red lettuce
  • Balsamic glaze store bought brand
  • Dr. J’s lime vinaigrette dressing recipe below
Lime Vinaigrette Ingredients
  • ¼ C fresh lime juice
  • ½ C extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 T honey
  • 1 T rice vinegar
  • 2 tsp. Dijon mustard
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • ½ tsp. kosher salt
  • ¼ tsp. ground black pepper

Method
 

Roasted Beets Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Take the tops off the beets (you can reserve these for another use). Wash and dry the beets. Place the beets on a large sheet of aluminum foil. Pour two tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil over the beets and roll around to coat. Sprinkle the beets with a pinch of kosher salt and ground black pepper. Wrap the beets tightly in aluminum foil.
  3. Place the wrapped beets on a baking sheet and place in the oven on the middle rack. Roast for 50 minutes to one hour. You should be able to pierce the beets easily with a fork. Take the beets out of the oven and let them cool. Once cooled, peel, then cut in half and then into wedges.
Assemble the Salad
  1. Place the lettuce on the bottom of a large serving platter. Now, it will become a work of art by layering your ingredients. I like to place my beets next, making sure they are spread evening over the lettuce.
  2. You can now do the same with the rest of the ingredients: tomatoes, figs, pistachios, goat cheese and prosciutto.
  3. Finally, top with my lime vinaigrette dressing or your favorite. I like to finish by drizzling the salad with a balsamic glaze (I used a store-bought brand). This salad is a beauty and it’s full of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants! Enjoy!
