Prep Time: 25 minutes, Cook Time: 2 1/2 hours, Serves 6
1/2 c. mixed nuts, walnuts, almonds and pecans
cooking spray
1 Henry's Large Egg White
1/3 c. raw cane sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. chili powder
1/4 tsp. ginger
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/8 tsp. allspice

sea salt and cracked black pepper to taste
3 organic red beets, trimmed
Henry's Extra Virgin Olive Oil
6 c. organic baby spinach
6 oz. Henry's Market Goat Cheese, crumbled
Olive Oil and Balsamic Vinaigrette
Preheat oven to 225°F. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray lightly with cooking spray. Whisk egg white until frothy in a large bowl. Add nuts; toss in enough egg white to coat evenly. In a separate bowl combine sugar with spices. Add to nuts; toss to coat evenly. Spread nuts in a single layer on baking sheet. Bake for about 2 hours, or until coating is crisp. Allow to cool.
Turn oven temperature up to 400°F. Place beets in a baking dish, drizzle with olive oil and cover with foil. Roast for one hour. Allow to cool; rub skins off with a paper towel. Slice into quarters. Chop a half-cup of nuts. Store remaining nuts in an airtight container. Divide spinach between four plates. Top with beets, goat cheese, nuts and vinaigrette.
