·2 tablespoons agave nectar or
pure maple syrup
·4 cloves garlic, minced
·1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Preheat oven to 375°. Place beets in a large baking dish and cover with foil. Bake for 1 and 1/2 hours, or until tender. Allow to cool, then peel and julienne. For the dressing, stir together the chia seeds and water and set aside for 10 minutes to thicken. Then, place chia gel in a blender and add vinegar, mustard, coconut nectar, garlic and sea salt.

Add beets and cranberries, then toss with desired amount of dressing. Top with candied walnuts and goat cheese (optional). Serve and enjoy!
The quality of the produce is fantastic, far better than anything we have previously bought from supermarkets. We love the variety in the veg bags, including being able to try new things.
