Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Coat beets lightly with olive oil and roast for approximately 45 minutes, or until tender. Allow to cool thoroughly, then peel and dice. (45 minutes)

02

Step

For the dressing, place lemon juice, white wine vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, and dried thyme in a blender. While blender is running, gradually add 1/2 cup of vegetable oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Place spring lettuce mix in a salad bowl, pour desired amount of dressing over greens, and toss to coat. (3 minutes)

04

Step

Rinse endive, tear off whole leaves, and pat dry. Arrange 3 leaves on each plate. Divide dressed salad greens among them, and top with diced beets and feta cheese. (10 minutes)

Roasting the beets brings out their natural sweetness. Don't overcrowd the pan when roasting to ensure even cooking.
Feel free to substitute goat cheese for feta if preferred.
For a richer flavor, try using balsamic vinegar instead of white wine vinegar.
The dressing can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
