4 servings
For the pickled beets
- 1 ½ lb medium beets (about 4–5 beets), scrubbed, tops trimmed
- ½ cup red wine vinegar
- ½ cup water
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp whole black peppercorns
For the vinaigrette
- 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 1 tsp dijon mustard
- 1 tsp honey
Ingredient noteA serving of up to about 1/2 teaspoon of honey is low in FODMAPs. This recipe contains only about 1/4 teaspoon per serving, making it likely Low FODMAP. If you prefer to always avoid honey, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- salt and pepper, to taste
For the salad
- 5 oz mixed greens or arugula
- 3 oz goat cheese, crumbled
- ⅓ cup walnut halves
Instructions
- 1
Place the beets in a large pot and cover with cold water by at least 2 inches. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a steady simmer and cook until a paring knife slides into the center of the largest beet with no resistance, 35–45 minutes depending on size.

Drain the beets and let them cool until comfortable to handle, about 10 minutes. Rub the skins off under cool running water using your hands or a paper towel — they should slip off easily. Slice the peeled beets into 1/4-inch rounds and place them in a medium heatproof bowl.
