Vibrant Beet Feta Salad with Cucumber and Dill – a fresh, colorful, and protein-packed salad perfect for a quick side or light meal.

  • Total Time: 12 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 cups roasted or canned beets, diced (from ~2 large beets)
  • 1 medium cucumber, seeded, halved, and thinly sliced
  • 4 oz feta, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill

Instructions

  1. Whisk lemon juice and kosher salt in a small bowl until salt dissolves. Gradually whisk in olive oil to make smooth dressing.
  2. Place diced beets in a large bowl and toss with half of the lemon vinaigrette. Let marinate.
  3. Just before serving, add cucumber, feta, dill, and remaining vinaigrette to the beets. Toss gently to combine, keeping feta slightly chunky.

Notes

  • Gently toss to avoid coloring feta pink from beets.
  • Adjust lemon juice or salt in dressing to taste.
