Avocado, Beet and Arugula Salad with Chevre Tartine

‘Tartine’ is the French word for a slice of bread with a topping. Spread herbed goat cheese on crusty bread and toss together beets, avocadoes and greens for an usual, beautiful meal that combines warm with cool, bitter with sweet, and creamy with crisp.
