Hellooooo from this new wife! The past 2 weeks have been an absolute whirlwind! From getting married to honeymooning in Hawaii for 11 days, I have been on cloud 9 (thousand). I can’t wait to share more about our wedding and honeymoon!

But first, let’s chat about coming home from vacation. I’m not sharing a salad recipe today because I ran home to eat a salad. I ate plenty of fruits and veggies in Hawaii!

The dieting mentality tells us that vacations are for over-indulging (and then “getting back on track” the second our plane lands). However, when you give yourself permission to eat what your body craves all of the time (a la intuitive and mindful eating), vacation is for putting on your out of office and unplugging… not an excuse for going “overboard,” because you can always eat whatever you want!

So I’m sharing this Roasted Beet and Goat Cheese Salad, not because it’s a salad and we’re back from vacation, but because it’s friggin’ delicious!

Getting back to work is hard for most, when you love what you do it makes coming off of vacation sooo much easier! Not to mention, I had the best welcome package waiting for me: a box of produce from my friends at Cal Organic Farms. As part of their Cal-O-Creators program, I get a monthly box of fresh, organic produce, sort of like a CSA box. I’ve been a fan of theirs for years now, so it’s been extra fun collaborating.

I teased the recipe I’m sharing below several weeks ago, but it’s been on repeat over here. I even whipped it up again with this month’s Cal Organic Farms box that contained beets and carrots too.

This Roasted Beet and Goat Cheese Salad is…

• Sweet and tangy
• Hearty and filling
• 100% satisfying
• Creamy
• Full of vitamins and minerals
• Easy to make

I love this salad right as the veggies come out of the oven or room temperature. If you have leftovers, I suggest letting them sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes before diving in (if you can wait!).

I hope you enjoy this simple, deliciously nutritious and filling salad as much as I do!
