Clean winter cress rosettes and leaves by breaking up larger plants, removing roots, and thoroughly washing in several changes of water.  Dry off, place on serving dish.  Add beetroot, top with crumbled goat cheese and toasted nuts.  Stir together dressing ingredients and drizzle over salad.

I love the flavour and colour combination of earthy beetroot, tangy goat cheese, and peppery cardamine, but roasted red peppers are an almost equally delicious alternative for beetroot haters.  In fact, a thinly sliced sourdough, spread with creamy goat cheese, topped with a slice of pickled or fresh charred and peeled red pepper, an optional slice of raw smoked or cured ham like prosciutto, Schwarzwalder Schinken, or serrano,  and a handful of Cardamine is probably my favourite sandwich.
