Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel the beets and cut them into 1- 1 ½ inch chunks. Place them on a lined baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Roast for 35 minutes or until the beets are tender. In the meantime, prepare the rest of the salad. Add all of the dressing ingredients to a bowl and mix well. Refrigerate until needed. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook the green beans for 2-3 minutes, until tender-crisp, then transfer to a large serving bowl. Combine green beans with tomatoes, beets, onion, cranberries, mozzarella and pine nuts. To serve, drizzle with the dressing and season with more salt and pepper to taste.
