Beet and Goat Cheese Salad

 Ingredients 

• 3 pound Beets
• 8 ounce Swiss Chard (1 bunch), chopped
• 2 clove Garlic, sliced thin
• 1/2 cup Reserved Beet Water
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 Tablespoon Balsamic Glaze
• 1 Tablespoon Honey
• 3 ounce soft Goat Cheese

Directions

1. Clean beets and cut off any tops or root ends (if applicable), cover with water and boil until tender. (Should be easily pierce-able with a fork.) Reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid. Cool the beets and peel off the skins. Cube into 1/2″ pieces. 
2. Place the reserved beet water, chopped Swiss Chard, sliced garlic, and salt in a saucepan. Cover and simmer on low for 5 minutes to wilt the chard. Strain off all liquids when done. 
3. In a large bowl, toss together the cooked beets, swiss chard, balsamic glaze, and honey. Break off small pieces of the goat cheese and fold into the salad. 
4. Serve and enjoy!
