Making this quinoa salad with goat white cheese with baby beets is incredibly simple, especially if you use convenience foods like Trader Joe's packaged goat cheese crumbles and steamed, peeled baby beets. Generally speaking, supermarkets carry other brands of ready-to-eat beets and cheese as well. One of my favorite grains is quinoa because it cooks in just 10 to 15 minutes, depending on how much you make at once. Doing advance meal prep and cooking in bulk is one of my top meal planning suggestions, and quinoa is one of those foods that are ideal for this. Ingredients

beets quinoa salad
The recipe for quinoa beets salad with pistachios is a Middle Eastern salad that is both tasty and nutritious. Ingredients:
- Beetroot: Very finely chopped beets can be used in place of grated beets. Beets can be added to the salad after being briefly sautéed if you don't like the flavor of them raw.
- Quinoa: You can use any kind of this recipe, including white, red, black, and rainbow varieties.
- Water: Use vegetable stock in place of water to give extra flavor.
- Herbs: I made this salad with mint and cilantro, but parsley and dill also work well. Choose any herb you like to use.
- Golden raisins: The raisins' sweetness counteracts the earthiness of the beets. Added ingredients include cranberries, black raisins, etc.
- Pistachios: I added pistachios because I like them and their green color delightfully contrasts with the red of beets.
Instructions:
- Cook quinoa, and rinse 12 cups of it with water before adding it to a pot. Cook uncovered for about 15 minutes, or until all the water has evaporated. Add 1 cup of water. Turn off the stove and cover the pan. Keep the cover on for at least five minutes. Then take off the lid, and use a fork to fluff the quinoa. Set it apart.
- Cut and grate the beets: Peel them and use a grater to shred them. You might also chop it extremely finely. Garlic powder is peeled and minced. Chopped the herbs roughly.
- Prepare the dressing: Combine extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, toasted cumin powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl to make the salad dressing.
- Combine everything: In a sizable bowl, combine the cooked quinoa, beet, herbs, pistachios, and raisins. Toss after pouring the dressing.

7 layer salad with beets
We think it's great when there's a lot of variety to pick from. One of our go-to dishes is a 7 layer salad that is topped with beets, crumbled bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, and homemade ranch dressing. This salad also includes a homemade dressing. How to make a salad with 7 layers: Even though a salad contains seven layers, that does not automatically qualify it as a "7 layer salad." In every one of the classic 7-layer salad recipes that I've seen, lettuce, peas, tomatoes, cheese, bacon, and some kind of mayonnaise-based dressing are required ingredients. There is one single layer that appears to be different from one recipe to the next. Many recipes, like mine, call for broccoli florets; but, I've also seen versions that call for chopped celery or hard-boiled eggs. No matter what you decide to use, you need to make sure that the flavors go well together and that the colors contrast one another. Dressing: To make the dressing, combine mayonnaise, white sugar, and vinegar in a bowl and whisk until smooth. Prepare the salad by laying out all of the components. Layer: Find a large bowl or trifle dish that is flat on the bottom and start by layering the lettuce on the bottom, followed by the tomatoes, the peas, the cheese, and finally the broccoli. Garnish + serve: Spread some dressing on top, then sprinkle some crumbled bacon and shredded cheese, and diced beets on top of that. Keep chilled in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
