Ingredients

• 2 Whole beets, peeled
• 4 Ounces (oz) mâche (lamb's lettuce), drained
• 4 Ounces (oz) arugula, drained
• 2 Whole fresh peaches, sliced
• 4 Ounces (oz) goat cheese, crumbled
• 0.25 Cups pistachio nuts, divided
• 2 Whole shallots, minced
• 0.25 Cups walnut oil
• 2 Tablespoons (tbsp) balsamic vinegar
• 1 Pinch salt, to taste

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Wrap each beet in two layers of aluminum foil and place onto a baking sheet.
2. Bake in the preheated oven until beets are tender, about 1 hour 20 minutes. Allow beets to cool slightly, then remove the skins. Let beets cool to room temperature or refrigerate until cold, about 1 hour.
3. Place mâche and arugula into a large mixing bowl. Thinly slice cooled beets and add to salad along with peaches, goat cheese, pistachios, and shallots.
4. Whisk walnut oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl until emulsified. Pour over salad, toss well, and serve.
