  • 2 balls (4 oz. each) burrata cheese torn into large pieces

Instructions
 

Roasting

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F. Toss beets and carrots with 2 Tbsp. oil, 1 tsp. kosher salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Spread vegetables on a hot baking sheet, turning beets cut sides down. Roast for 35 to 40 minutes, turning halfway through. Let cool slightly.

Gremolata Preparation

  • Stir together hazelnuts, parsley, flaky sea salt, garlic, lemon zest, and 2 Tbsp. oil in a small bowl.

Dressing Preparation

  • Whisk together lemon juice, honey, remaining 2 Tbsp. oil, and ½ tsp. kosher salt in the reserved bowl. Add arugula and quinoa; toss to coat.

Assembling the Salad

  • Spread arugula mixture on individual plates or a serving platter; top with roasted beets and carrots. Arrange burrata over vegetables and spoon hazelnut mixture over the salad. Drizzle with additional olive oil and sprinkle with extra flaky sea salt.

Notes
