RED, WHITE & BLUE SALAD with BLUBERRY BALSAMIC VINAIGRETTE
 
2 BUNCHES      RED BEETS, peeled and cut into uniform size (halved or quartered)
4OZ                    GOAT CHEESE, crumbled
½ C                     FRESH BLUEBERRIES
½ C                     PISTACHIOS
5oz                     ARUGULA
 
Place the peeled beets on a sheet pan and drizzle with olive oil and salt and pepper. Roast in a 400 degree oven until fork tender. When cooled, cut the beets into 1” pieces. Place the arugula in a large bowl. Spoon ¼ of the dressing atop the arugula and toss to ensure all of the leaves are coated, adding more if necessary. Place the dressed arugula on a platter and sprinkle with roasted beets, goat cheese crumbles, blueberries and pistachios.
