Golden Beet and Feta Salad
Ingredients
- 5 - 10 golden beets - At the market in the summer, there are many light coloured beets, pink, golden, orange, any of them will do
- 1 ½ tbsp lemon juice
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- ¼ tsp salt - optional
- ¼ tsp pepper
- 4 cups mixed salad greens - which have been washed, spun dry, wicked in a tea towel and chilled in the fridge
Instructions
- Cook the beets in boiling water until just tender. Cool and slip off skins. Cut into quarters (or eighths if medium sized) and set aside.
- Put the lemon juice in a small bowl, then add oil in a slow stream (or use your Bullet) until well combined. Season dressing with pepper and salt. You may wish to omit the salt, since the Feta cheese is salty.
- Place the greens in a salad bowl, top with the cut and cooked beets, sprinkle the Feta over the beets and drizzle the dressing over the top. Gently toss.
