This salad was inspired by a trip to the farmers market, where I found some beautiful fresh arugula and beets. I had never roasted beets before, but I was intrigued by their deep red color and earthy flavor. I decided to give it a try, and I was so glad I did! The roasted beets were sweet and caramelized, and they paired perfectly with the peppery arugula. I added some goat cheese for creaminess and a honey mustard vinaigrette for a touch of sweetness and tang. The result was a salad that was both delicious and beautiful.
