If you're in a hurry, toss the orange juice and beet mixture with the lettuce before dividing it among individual plates. Ingredients:
1/4 cup orange juice |
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 teaspoon dijon mustard |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
1 (14.5-ounce) can sliced beets, drained (about 1 1/2 cups) |
4 cups torn red leaf lettuce |
2 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese |
1/4 cup chopped walnuts, toasted |
Directions:
1. Combine first 7 ingredients in a small bowl; stir well with a whisk. Add beets; toss well. Cover and chill 2 hours.
