This Green Salad with Beets is simple, beautiful, and yummy. You can add tomatoes and sliced cucumbers for a little variety.
Try some beets, walnuts, and feta on your green salad.
Green Salad With Beets, Walnuts & Feta
I like simple canned, sliced beets. Do you? Beets are a bit sweet and add some jazz to any salad. Top a Green Salad with Beets, toasted walnuts, and a bit of Feta cheese. Beautiful, delicious, and good for you. And so simple with canned beets.
Did you know that one cup of beets gives you 37% of your needed folic acid, plus most of the B vitamins? (If you are pregnant or want to become pregnant, you really need to make sure you get enough folic acid. So eat your beets!)
You can make a salad even better with Roasted Beets.
What do you like in your salad? Make your life easy. Prep your meals. Salads are especially easy if you prep them ahead of time. Then you can simply choose what you want to throw together in your salad. It’s likely your salads will be more interesting!
What You Need
I use a toaster oven for this recipe. I like my walnuts toasted. A salad spinner is helpful for washing greens. Whatever you buy, be sure to buy the best you can afford so it lasts a lifetime.
