Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Fresh beetroot
- 1 large Avocado
- 100 grams Baby spinach leaves
- 100 grams Feta cheese
- 50 grams Walnuts
- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 medium Fresh lemon
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Begin by washing the beetroot thoroughly. Then, put the beetroot in a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook for about 30 minutes or until tender.
Once cooked, drain the beetroot and set aside to cool. Once cool enough to handle, peel off the skin and chop the beetroot into bite-sized cubes.
In the meantime, halve the avocado, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh out with a spoon. Cut the avocado into slices.
Coarsely chop the walnuts and toast them in a dry pan over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes until fragrant. Set aside to cool.
In a small bowl, prepare the dressing by combining the juice of one lemon, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and set aside.
In a large salad bowl, combine the chopped beetroot, avocado slices, baby spinach leaves, crumbled feta cheese, and toasted walnuts.
Drizzle the lemon dressing over the salad and gently toss to combine all ingredients evenly.
Serve the salad immediately or chill it in the refrigerator for 10 minutes for a more refreshing taste.
