Whipped Ricotta and Beet Salad (FM)
Recipes | January 27, 2016
*Yields 1 Portion
Ingredients:
1 large roasted beet, cut into small cubes
1 1/2 cup arugula lettuce
1/4 cup ricotta cheese
2 teaspoon olive olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 tablespoon white balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions:
- You can roast the beet by wrapping it in foil and baking at 400 degree for 35 minutes, just until it can be pierced with a fork and the skin easily peels off (you will definitely have bright pink fingers after 🙂
- In a small dish, add the ricotta, 1 teaspoon olive oil and the 1/4 teaspoon of salt, whip with a fork until blended and smooth.  Spread the whipped ricotta along a dinner plate.
- In a medium bowl, toss together the arugula, the remaining teaspoon of olive oil, the balsamic vinegar and the walnuts.
- Top the arugula mix on top of the whipped ricotta and enjoy! 🙂

I’m just curious to know, why do you make this with ricotta and not cottage cheese? Thanks!
