Equipment

  • bowl
  • whisk
  • measuring cup

Ingredients
  

Dressing

  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Salad

  • 2 cups roasted or canned beets cut into roughly ½ pieces (about 2 large beets)
  • 1 medium cucumber seeded, halved, and thinly sliced
  • 4 oz feta cheese crumbled
  • ¼ cup fresh dill roughly chopped

Instructions
 

Dressing Preparation

  • In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk the lemon juice and kosher salt together until the salt is dissolved. Drizzle the extra-virgin olive oil gradually, whisking as you go.

Salad Assembly

  • Place the sliced beets in a large bowl. Add half the dressing to the bowl and mix together. Let sit while you prep the remaining ingredients.
  • Just before serving, add the cucumber, feta cheese, fresh dill, and remaining dressing to the bowl and toss together.

Notes

If you like, you can reserve a little of each ingredient to top the salad on a serving platter so everything isn't bright pink (if you are using red beets). Red wine vinegar or balsamic vinegar can be substituted for the lemon juice, if you prefer.
