Roasted Beet, Blue Cheese and Walnut Salad with Raspberry Vinaigrette Dressing

I would say this is one of my all time favorite salad combinations. The roasted beet, blue cheese and walnuts just work so well together. This is one of the dishes that by picking the right ingredients you can save your self a lot of calories and fat.

Treasure Cave lite blue cheese has about 30% less calories and fat than regular blue cheese. Secondly, you can find incredible raspberry vinaigrette salad dressings, but they have 120 - 160 calories and 12 - 16 grams of fat  per serving. Go with Bolthouse Raspberry Merlot Vinaigrette with 30 calories and .5 grams of fat per serving.

Ingredients:
Green or red leaf lettuce
Roasted beets (canned, not packed in high fructose corn syrup)
Treasure Cave lite blue cheese
Bolthouse Raspberry Merlot Vinaigrette salad dressing
Chopped walnuts

Preparation:

Take your cleaned and chopped lettuce and add to a large salad bowl. Mix with the Bolthouse Raspberry Merlot Vinaigrette and top with roasted beets, blue cheese, chopped walnuts and a grind of fresh black pepper.
