Roasted Beet and Blue Cheese Salad

I love the roasted beet and blue cheese combination. The key to this salad for me is to keep it as healthy as possible by using the proper ingredients. I like Treasure Cave reduced fat blue cheese and Opa brand Greek yogurt blue cheese salad dressing. This dressing is so good and only has 6 grams of fat per serving.

  

Ingredients:

1 head green leaf lettuce

Opa Greek yogurt blue cheese salad dressing

Roasted beets. Found in most grocery stores and Trader Joe's

Treasure cave reduced fat blue cheese

Fresh ground pepper

 

Preparation:

Prepare you lettuce by cutting the lettuce into bite size pieces washing in a salad spinner. Make sure the lettuce is perfectly dry because if there is water on the lettuce, the salad dressing will get watered down and won't be nearly as good. Place the prepared lettuce in a large salad bowl and toss with the blue cheese dressing.

 

To serve, place a portion of the salad on a plate. Top with chopped roasted beets, blue cheese and a grind of fresh ground pepper.
