Instructions: Roasted Beet Salad with Feta Recipes
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Wrap each beet individually in aluminum foil and place onto a baking sheet.
Step 2: Bake beets in preheated oven until easily pierced with a fork, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Allow beets to cool until you can handle them. Peel beets and cut into 1/4-inch slices.
Step 3: While beets are roasting, whisk shallots, parsley, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and red wine vinegar together in a bowl until blended; season with salt and pepper and set aside.
Step 4: Place warm, sliced beets onto a serving dish; pour vinaigrette over the beets and sprinkle with feta cheese.
Didn’t have any shallots, so I took the recipe submitter’s suggestion and used green onions. I never buy red beets anymore, golden beets are just so much sweeter, so that’s what I used. This is the type of salad that I would expect to be served at a really nice restaurant, it’s definitely upscale. The mildly tangy dressing gives balance to the sweet beets and creamy feta. Enjoyed for lunch today, served on a bed of lettuce and with some garlic and chive pita chips that I bought at Aldi. Wouldn’t hesitate to serve this to company, excellent!
Doubled quantities except the red wine vinegar. After peeling and slicing the beets, drizzled with the first 1T Balsamic, 1T OO, and 1T RWV. Roasted at 360° 7 minutes uncovered. Stirred, then drizzled 1T additional Balsamic vinegar. Roasted for another 7 minutes at 360°. The beets absorbed all the liquid. Mixed the last 1T Balsamic and 1T OO with chopped chives and parsley, then added arugula. Used arugula as base for beets on tray. Topped beets with feta and halved gooseberries . Excellent!
We love this dish. Perfect every time!
I peeled then cubed the beets (I only had two large ones), tossed them with oil and a bit of garlic then roasted them for about 1/2 hour…left the rest the same…turned out great!
Loved it! I love red beets and feta, and made this exactly as the recipe called, only substituted dry parsley as I did not have fresh. I did read reviews on the baking time of beets and allowed for that, thank you for sharing? YUMMY?
This is the nicest beetroot recipe I’ve come across. The beeyeoot needed considerably longer cooking time than stated but that’s fine. I used spring onion instead shallots.
Excellent recipe! Lots of flavor and so easy to make as long as you have an hour to bake. I didn’t change anything in the recipe.
My family did not care for this and we love beets and feta.
My beets were quite large so they took more time. I'm thinking about curbing and really roasting them next time ( yes there will definitely be a next time!). The flavors are excellent. I used minced green onion and some garlic instead of shallot since there was no way i would go to the store for just shallot! Thanks for this recipe.
