Ingredients
- 4 whole medium beetroots
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 100 grams crumbled feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Wash and scrub the beetroots clean, then wrap each beetroot in aluminum foil.
Step 3
Place the wrapped beetroots on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 45-60 minutes until they are fork-tender.
Step 4
Remove the beetroots from the oven and let them cool slightly before peeling off the skins. Wearing gloves can help prevent your hands from staining.
Step 5
While the beetroots are cooling, prepare the dressing by whisking together olive oil, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, honey, sea salt, and black pepper in a small bowl.
Step 6
Once peeled, cut the beetroots into wedges and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Step 7
Pour the dressing over the beetroots and toss gently to coat evenly.
Step 8
Add the crumbled feta cheese, pumpkin seeds, and fresh parsley to the bowl. Toss lightly to combine.
Step 9
Transfer the salad to a serving platter or individual plates.
Step 10
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to a day to let the flavors meld.
