This salad is great for when you need some fresh seasonal fruits and veggies in your diet.
I recently made the best salad in the world! Okay, I’ve got to give a little credit to my brother, Brandon the chef, who gave me the idea of using seasonal produce rather than the standard salad ingredients. This salad will give you life!
Ingredients:
- Arugula
- Bacon or veggie bacon
- Beets
- Pears
- Red onion
- Goat cheese
- Fig balsamic dressing
Directions:
Start with roasting your beets at 425 degrees for 45-60 minutes. Once they’ve cooled, slice them. Chop the bacon and fry it, starting with a cool pan. Slice the pears and red onion. Assemble the salad in a large bowl, crumble the goat cheese on top, and toss to distribute the ingredients. This salad has enough flavor to stand on its own, but I topped mine with Whole Foods’ 365 fig balsamic dressing. Enjoy!
