Instructions

  1. Rinse the arugula in cold water, drain, and pat dry, or use a salad spinner to remove excess water.

  1. Thinly slice one (or two, if small) roasted beets.

  1. Peel and section the orange and cut it into bite-sized pieces.

  1. Toast the sesame seeds in a shallow pan over medium heat until they become slightly brown. Be careful not to overcook; there is a small window between toasted and burnt. 

  1. Combine the arugula, roasted beet slices, and orange segments in a medium bowl—season with salt and pepper to taste and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.
