Beet Citrus Salad

If you’re looking for a vibrant, nutrient-packed dish that’s as delicious as it is easy to prepare, this beet and citrus salad is it. Beets are a true superfood—rich in antioxidants, folate, and nitrates that support heart health, circulation, and detoxification. Their natural sweetness pairs beautifully with juicy oranges, tangy feta, and a bright lemon dressing, creating the perfect balance of flavors.

This salad is incredibly simple to make and ideal for batch prepping. Cook up a big batch of beets at the start of the week, and you’ll have the foundation for an effortless, ready-to-go meal or side dish. It keeps well in the fridge, making it a great option for meal prep or a quick, nourishing addition to any plate.

  • 3 oranges
  • ⅓ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • ¼ cup minced red onion
  • ¼ cup minced parsley
  • Juice of one lemon
  • 2 tablespoons EVOO

  • Cut beets into 1/2 inch wedges or cubes
  • Add beets to a large bowl
  • Prep all other ingredients and add to the bowl with the beets
  • Toss well, adjust seasonings to taste, and let the salad sit sit in the fridge for at least one hour before serving
  • Keep leftovers in a glass tupperware in the fridge for up to 4-5 days

Summary
