Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces medium beetroots
- 150 grams vegan feta cheese
- 100 grams mixed salad greens (such as arugula, spinach, and watercress)
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 50 grams walnuts
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Wash and trim the beetroots, leaving about 1 inch of the stem attached. Wrap each beetroot individually in aluminum foil and place them on a baking tray.
Roast the beetroots in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
While the beetroots are roasting, prepare the dressing by whisking together the olive oil, lemon juice, maple syrup, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
Chop the walnuts roughly and toast them in a dry pan over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally, until they are golden and fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the beetroots are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. When they are cool enough to handle, peel off the skins by gently rubbing them with your hands. The skins should come off easily.
Cut the peeled beetroots into bite-sized wedges and arrange them on a serving platter.
Top the beetroot wedges with mixed salad greens, sprinkled vegan feta cheese, chopped parsley, chopped mint, and toasted walnuts.
Drizzle the prepared lemon dressing over the salad.
Toss everything gently to combine, ensuring the dressing coats all the ingredients evenly.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Vegan Beetroot and Feta Salad!
