I’ve found out of the years that beets have a bad reputation, but I can’t figure out why! Beetroots are a vibrant purple-ish red vegetable best known for its earthy flavor. They are packed with nutrients and vitamins and are known for many health benefits, including lowering blood pressure. I’m convinced that anyone who says they “don’t like beets,” hasn’t actually tried them… and they definitely haven’t tried this delicious 3-ingredient beet salad.
Beet Salad Ingredients
- Beets – you can cook your own fresh beetroot, but I am using canned for this recipe. The convenience of throwing this together quickly wins for me!
- Crumbled Feta Cheese
- Balsamic Vinegar
- Salt & Pepper – to taste (optional)
This recipe can be thrown together in less than 5 minutes and is great on top of some mixed greens or alone as a side dish. I also enjoy bringing this beet salad to work for a quick snack. I can make a large batch on Sunday evening and it stays fresh and delicious all week.
