Ingredients

  • 4 bunches fresh small beets, stems removed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 medium heads Belgian endive
  • 1 pound spring lettuce mix
  • 1 cup crumbled feta cheese

Directions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Coat beets lightly with oil and roast for approximately 45 minutes, or until tender. Allow to cool thoroughly, then peel and dice.

Step 2
For the dressing, place lemon, vinegar, honey, mustard, and thyme in a blender. While blender is running, gradually add 1/2 cup of oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Place spring lettuce mix in a salad bowl, pour desired amount of dressing over greens, and toss to coat.

Step 3
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.
