Beet, Carrot, and Turkey Salad with a Goat Cheese Drizzle is the fastest, tastiest salad ever! All you need is five minutes and five ingredients.
I was going to post this idea real quick on IG, but it ended up being so simple and so good I decided it needed a post because I don't want to forget it!
The nutritional profile for my goals is spot on too - nearly equal protein and carbs with the right balance of fat.
Next time I would make the dressing a little thicker but other than that. This was the perfect lunch for me.
In other news, I added a Weight Loss Macro Calculator on the site for those that want a starting point for their macro goals. I'm starting to track again so I was inspired. 🙂

Yield 1 serving
Beet, Carrot, and Turkey Salad with a Goat Cheese Drizzle is the fastest, tastiest salad ever! All you need is five minutes and five ingredients.
Ingredients
- 4 cooked beets
- 4 oz cooked turkey breast
- 1 carrot
- 1 green onion
- 1 oz crumbled goat cheese
- pinch of salt and pepper
- 1-2 tbsp of water
Instructions
Quarter the beets, then half each quarter.
Cut the turkey into bite-sized chunks.
Chop the carrots small.
Chop the green onion.
Arrange all the cut ingredients on the plate.
Add a splash of water to the goat cheese with a pinch of salt and pepper and mix until creamy. Add additional water to get to the consistency you like.
Drizzle the goat cheese on top of the salad.
Enjoy!
Notes
- I used one of the precooked pillow packs of beets. Works great and easy to keep on hand. Canned beets would work too!
- I usually keep a cooked turkey breast on hand for a quick protein option but any cooked chicken or turkey would be great in this.
