Ingredients

  • 3 vibrant beets, cleaned and trimmed to your liking
  • 3 tablespoons of zesty fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons of premium extra-virgin olive oil
  • A flavorful tablespoon of balsamic vinegar
  • A dollop of Dijon mustard for an extra kick
  • Season with a sprinkle of salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • A dash of garlic salt to enhance the flavors
  • 2 juicy tomatoes, cubed into bite-sized pieces
  • Half of a crimson red onion, thinly sliced
  • A ripe avocado, peeled, pitted, and cut into chunks
  • A container of crumbled feta cheese (4 ounces)
  • A pack of tender baby spinach leaves (8 ounces)

Step 1

Begin the culinary adventure by introducing the humble beets to a spacious pot filled with water, inviting them to dance as they reach a bubbling boil. Once they have softened to perfection, a gentle simmer for about an hour should do the trick. Let the beets rest and cool down, allowing them to shed their tough skins with ease. Transform them into delightful cubes and nestle them in a bowl, granting them a brief respite in the chilly embrace of the refrigerator for approximately 15 minutes.

Step 2

Meanwhile, concoct a zesty dressing by blending the tangy lemon juice, the fruity olive oil, the rich balsamic vinegar, the spicy mustard, a pinch of salt, a sprinkle of pepper, and a dash of garlic salt in a grand bowl until a harmonious mixture is achieved. Into this flavorful elixir, add the vibrant beets, juicy tomatoes, pungent onion, creamy avocado, and crumbly feta cheese, gently tossing them together in a symphony of tastes. To crown this culinary masterpiece, shower the salad with fresh spinach leaves and give it one final toss, ensuring every bite is a delightful mosaic of flavors.

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Utilize an airtight container to keep your beets fresh and crisp. A glass jar works well and allows you to see the vibrant colors of the salad.
  2. 2. Keep the salad in the refrigerator to maintain its freshness. A designated section for your prepared salads can make it easy to grab a quick and healthy snack.
