Beet Salad

I have already posted a beet salad recipe but this one is a little different, extremeley easy and delicious.

1# beets, red or golden
1/3 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
1 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp. sunflower-seed oil
2 oz. goat cheese
coarse ground black pepper
Salad greens

Heat oven to 400 degrees.  Wrap beets in foil.  Roast until tender, about 1 hour.  Cool slightly; remove foil.  Rub off or peel skins; cut into thin wedges.  Toss with nuts and vinegar.  Season with salt and pepper.  Add oil; toss.  Spoon over salad greens.  Crumble goat cheese on top.

Note:  In the Madison WI area Driftless Organics and Cherokee Bison make some great sunflower seed oil that they sell at the farmers market.
