Ingredients
- 2 medium beets
- 14 cherries pitted and quartered
- 1 cup cooked quinoa
- 1 medium cucumber diced
- 6 oz. feta cheese crumbled
- 2 Tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice
- 1 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- Freshly cracked black pepper
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees.
- Cut off most of the beet root and then wrap each beet loosely in aluminum foil. Place foil-wrapped beets on a baking sheet and place in oven for about 50 minutes, until beets are tender. Be sure to check on them and dribble a small amount of water over them if they appear to be drying out.
- Let beets cool to room temperature and then remove skins.
- Dice beets and place in a large bowl.
- Add cherries, quinoa, diced cucumber, and crumbled feta cheese together in the bowl with the beets.
- In a small separate bowl, whisk together lime juice, extra-virgin olive oil, and cracked pepper. Pour dressing over the top of the salad.
