Arugula Beet & Feta Salad

Peppery arugula and tender, sweet beets are balanced by a simple vinaigrette and briny bits of feta cheese in this salad. Using cooked, peeled beets helps make prep a breeze.

Ingredients

  • 1 medium shallot, thinly sliced
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons champagne vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • ¼ teaspoon ground pepper, plus more for garnish
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • 1 (8.8-ounce) package refrigerated cooked beets, such as love beets
  • 1 (5-ounce) package arugula
  • ½ cup crumbled feta cheese

Directions

  1. Stir sliced shallot, 3 tablespoons oil, 2 tablespoons vinegar, 2 teaspoons honey, ¼ teaspoon pepper and ⅛ teaspoon salt together in a large bowl until combined.
  2. Drain beets and cut into 1-inch wedges; add to the dressing and toss to coat. Add arugula; toss gently to coat. Top with ½ cup feta and garnish with additional pepper, if desired.
