Beet Salad

This vibrant roasted beetroot salad is a classic vegetarian dish that celebrates the naturally earthy, sweet flavours of peak-season vegetables. Roasting the beetroot in their skins concentrates their natural sugars, creating a tender texture that pairs beautifully with the sharp tang of balsamic vinegar and the crunch of walnuts. It is a visually stunning dish that works equally well as a sophisticated starter or a nutritious light lunch.

Packed with antioxidants and heart-healthy fats, this recipe is as nourishing as it is delicious. The addition of creamy, low-fat goat's cheese provides a hit of protein and a savoury contrast to the root vegetables. Serve it while the beetroot is still slightly warm for a comforting autumn meal, or chilled for a refreshing summer salad alongside some crusty sourdough bread.
