Salads are like soul food for me!

They keep me hydrated, plus the fact that they are really easy to prepare and serve makes the idea of preparing fresh salad every day all the more lucrative and consoling in a different manner.

Starfruit Almond Salad, Avocado Lentil Salad, Pear Pomegranate Salad, and Ranch BLT pasta Salad have enriched me and my family for days now and so, I thought why not experiment with a new salad, eh?

Having tasted a beetroot based salad- Balsamic Beet Salad, at one of the meet greets, I got all keen for trying it at home.

I personally like eating beetroot a lot and it was one of the reasons why Beetroot Hummus, Beetroot Halwa are some of the dishes that I always look forward to preparing.

This Salad is an interesting recipe that you can prepare if you are a beetroot fan just like me.

Made using Balsamic Vinegar, extra virgin olive oil, walnuts, and feta cheese, Balsamic Beet Salad is surely a treat that cannot be missed.

With the natural sweetness of beetroot, the tang of balsamic vinegar, the crunch of walnut and creaminess of feta cheese goes so very well that the eater cherishes every morsel of Balsamic Beet Salad.

Variations

Instead of boiling the beet as suggested in this recipe, you can roast them too. Balsamic Roasted Beet and Arugula Salad is a hit in my house too.

You can also do a beet salad with maple balsamic vinaigrette or a balsamic beet and berry salad.

Before I spill more beans, I think you better note down the recipe of Balsamic Beet Salad and prepare it pretty soon, there you go:
