Ingredients
  

2 medium beetroots, roasted and diced

1 large cucumber, thinly sliced

1 small red onion, finely chopped

1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled

1/4 cup walnuts, roughly chopped

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Roast the Beetroots: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wrap the beetroots in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet. Roast for about 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork. Allow them to cool before peeling and dicing.

    Prepare the Vegetables: While the beetroots are roasting, prepare the cucumber and red onion. Thinly slice the cucumber and finely chop the red onion. Place them in a large mixing bowl.

      Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, chopped dill, salt, and pepper to create a refreshing dressing.

        Combine Ingredients: Once the beetroots are roasted and cooled, add the diced beetroot to the bowl with the cucumber and red onion. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine, ensuring everything is coated evenly.

          Finish with Toppings: Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese and chopped walnuts on top of the salad for added flavor and texture.

            Chill and Serve: Allow the salad to chill in the fridge for about 15 minutes before serving. This will enhance the flavors and make it more refreshing.
