Warm Beet Salad With Goat Cheese

This post brought to you by Love Beets. All opinions are 100% mine.

Are you ready for another healthy lunch option? One of my all time favorite flavor combos is beets and goat cheese. Oh it’s heavenly. So today, I’m sharing another one of my favorite lunch options, a Warm Beet Salad With Goat Cheese.

I’ve had more gourmet versions of this salad in fancy restaurants. But with two kids it’s a miracle if I event make myself a lunch so I came up with a quick version of this decadent salad.

Did you know that February is American Heart Month? Beets are rich in potassium, which is one of the main minerals responsible for muscle contraction, including the contraction of the heart. A diet rich in beets and other potassium-rich foods can help decrease the risk of cardiovascular disease and stroke. Beets  also contain two important nutrients that can help lower blood pressure: potassium (again) and nitrate.

For this light salad, you only need 1-2 beets sliced into 1/4″ pieces.

#ad We’ve been working on a few refreshes in our backyard this year! The sun has worn down a lot of our furniture out here so we are swapping out our weathered umbrella tables with these gorgeous black fluted tables from @veradek . I already had the matching planters out here (and love them BTW), and decided to add one more in the SandStone color for a bit of contrast. #myveradek #reimagineoutdoors #meetyououtside

Almost everything in here was either brought from our Washington home 3 years ago or bought second hand! Piece by piece this room has become a cozy space for our family over the last 3 years. The new stairs are staying and will work into the new design, I love them so much.
