Roasted Beets & Argula with Lemon Verbena Vinaigrette

Comment

Ingredients

  • Arugula Lettuce (9 oz)
  • Beets, Red - trimmed (3.5 lbs)
  • Lemon Verbena Vinaigrette (4 oz)
  • Pepper, Black - ground (1 ea)
  • Ricotta Cheese - shaved (8 oz)
  • Salt, Kosher (1 ea)

Steps

  1. Cook the beets (see notes).
  2. Let the beets cool, then skin and cut into 1/2" dice.
  3. Individually bag each item after it's prepped, and ship the dressing in a container.
  4. On site, combine the beets with the arugala and lemon verbena vinaigrette.
  5. Top with the ricotta salata.

Notes

To roast, wrap each beet with foil and place on a rimmed baking sheet. To steam, place in a hotel pan with a touch of orange juice. After pulling from the steamer, cover with plastic to seal in steam. Skin easily comes off with a dry towel.
