I tend to not post salad recipes as they are more random mash-ups of kitchen items than carefully crafted creations. But just because a salad requires minimal cooking or planning doesn't mean it's any lesser of a dish.
Salads are highly underrated as vehicles of nutrition, texture, flavor, and substance--especially when they consist of more than just lettuce and a few raw veggies. Combining both raw and cooked vegetables can perk up a tired, basic salad and give it more warming energy for the colder months.
This salad is made up of roasted fennel and radishes, garlicky sautéed green beans, pre-cooked beets, and raw leafy greens. I used slightly peppery Japanese mizuna for the base, but feel free to swap that out for arugula, spinach, or your other favorite green if you cannot find any near you.
Enjoy the contrast of both warm and cool, tender and crunchy, salty and tangy as you devour this nourishing dish.
