Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups roasted beets
- 1 cup cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons red apple vinegar or lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
Instructions
- Roast the beets wrapped in foil at 400°F for 45–60 minutes, or steam them for about 30 minutes until they're tender. Once cooled, peel and slice them into bite-sized pieces.

- Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese on top of the salad just before serving.
