GRILLED BEET, ARUGULA & GOAT CHEESE

What You’ll Need:

1-2 Beets
Olive Oil
Arugula
Goat Cheese
Butter
French Bread
1/2 ounce sherry (optional)
Salt

What To Do:

– Start off by roasting the beets by your preferred method. For instance, you can skin them with a paring knife, slice them evenly, toss them in some olive oil and salt, then baked on 375°F for 20-30 minutes, flipping halfway through.

– Once the beets have cooked to your desired tenderness (poke them with a fork or taste a few slices), take them out of the oven and in a pan on medium-high heat, quickly fry them with about a ½ ounce of sherry wine, cooking until evaporated.

– Once you have finished frying the beets, slice up your bread, butter each side, lay down some arugula, a little bit of goat cheese, then your beets and some more goat cheese, and slap it together!

– Fry the sandwich in a pan on medium heat until each side is golden brown, then sliced it in half and enjoy!
