Ingredients
  

  • 20 fresh mint leaves ¼ teaspoon dried mint should work
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 8.8 oz 250g roasted or cooked beets (I buy them cooked from Costco, but you can use canned or roast your own)
  • 1 Bartlett pear
  • 1 oz crumbled goat cheese
  • 1 oz 28g walnuts

Instructions
 

  • Whisk and smash the mint, honey, lemon juice, olive oil, and salt to make the dressing.
    20 fresh mint leaves, 1 teaspoon honey, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon olive oil, 1 pinch of salt
  • Set aside.
  • Prepare the beets and the pear by cutting them in half and then slicing. Place them in a large bowl with the walnuts and goat cheese.
    8.8 oz 250g roasted or cooked beets (I buy them cooked from Costco, but you can use canned or roast your own), 1 Bartlett pear, 1 oz crumbled goat cheese, 1 oz 28g walnuts
  • Pour dressing on top and toss!
  • Separate into 2 servings or pile on a plate for a tasty lunch!
  • I ate half and saved the other mostly because I wanted to see how this salad would hold up. It was good the next day but much better fresh, so this is one salad I recommend making and eating right away to prevent the pears from softening too much.
