Roasted Beet, Apple, Walnut Salad with Honey Lemon Yogurt Dressing

Roasted Beet, Apple, Walnut Salad with Honey Lemon Yogurt Dressing

If you’ve ever read any of my Beet Recipe posts, you know that I did not like beets growing up, but came to love them after I tasted my first Roasted Beet Salad. During the summer, beets abound at the farmer’s market and in my CSA Box, so I have plenty of opportunities to experiment with beets and beet greens. Last summer, I made Pasta with Roasted Beets, Beet Greens and Pine Nuts and Beet and Apple Soup.

This summer, I’ve made a few salads using both the beet greens and beet root, including a Warm Roasted Beet and Beet Green Salad with Yogurt Sauce. I’ve been using Yogurt Sauce on Roasted Vegetables too. So, when I saw a salad on the menu of a local menu recently that paired beets and apples, I immediately thought of making this and serving it with a Honey Lemon Yogurt Dressing.

Roasted Beet, Apple, Walnut Salad with Honey Lemon Yogurt DressingServed on top of some soft lettuce greens (also from my CSA Box), this Beet, Apple and Walnut Salad with Honey Lemon Dressing had lots of different textures going on. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did.

This week on Food Network’s Summer Fest, a group of talented bloggers are featuring farm fresh recipes using Beets that are in season. Each week, recipes using farm fresh produce will be featured on the Food Network website along with recipes by a group of fabulous food bloggers.

Be sure to check out the following recipes from all my friends participating in this week’s Summer Fest!

    I didn’t used to like beets, but now I can’t get enough of them! Now, just to learn how to can them myself.

    DaNelle recently posted…Some exciting changes on the Farm!

    YUM this looks amazing! We’ve been getting lots of beautiful beets in our CSA each week and I have grilled some, roasted some and even made chips with some of them. I seriously could eat beets forever 🙂

    There’s nothing about this salad that I do not love — including beets! I love the different varieties that are available at my local farmstand now.

    Jeanette, this looks so lovely and my dear Dad is raising beets seedlings for his summer garden (we’ve just hit spring here) so maybe I’ll get to make it for them over the Christmas break.

    A suggestion for those of us whose insides sometimes find nuts too rough – soak them in the dressing for a wee while!

    Dear Jeanette – your blog rocks!!!

    My husband loves beets, but I have never tried them–can you believe it?! It’s on my to-do list for the fall though and this salad would be perfect!

    Hate to admit it, but I am still leery of beets. Just can’t quite get myself to like them. They sure do make a pretty salad, though!
