Preparation
- Step 1
Wash beets, and cut stems to 1 inch. Place in saucepan, cover with water, and simmer until tender, about 40 minutes.
- Step 2
Meanwhile toast walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat. Set aside. Tear arugula into bite-size pieces, and place in a bowl. Dice chevre.
- Step 3
Beat vinegar and oils together. Season with salt and pepper. When beets are tender, drain, peel and slice them into a bowl. Toss with a third of the dressing. Toss arugula with half the remaining dressing.
- Step 4
To serve, arrange arugula on 4 salad plates. Arrange beets on top, and scatter with chevre and walnuts. Drizzle on remaining dressing.

Delicious! For those wondering the same things I was: 1 bunch arugula == 7oz. I replaced with 6oz (170g) of spinach, since there were no stems to remove. Raspberry vinegar substitute: 4 Tbsp white wine vinegar + 1/2 Tbsp raspberry jam (or even strawberry jam), gently warm and whisk together. I used small beets so cooking time was only ~20 minutes. Chevre == Goat Cheese. Flavors were great, really liked the toasted walnuts in it.
Delicious! I used Ben's sub for raspberry vinegar except used balsmatic instead of white wine. i also forgot the oil entirely and didn't notice until I came to write this note! Will be making this again!

I followed the recipe except for the dressing. i didn't have walnut oil so I used more olive oil and a bit of honey. It was a good result. The recipe is a keeper.
