  • 2 medium beets, cooked and diced
  • 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 2 cups mixed greens (e.g., spinach, arugula)
  • 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh herbs (e.g., parsley or dill) for garnish

  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper.

Try soaking red onion in cold water for 10 minutes to mellow its sharpness. This salad tastes even better after a few hours in the refrigerator.
