total timeIngredients
250 g / 8 oz canned baby beetroot (, halved or quartered if they are large)
120 g / 4 oz baby rocket (arugula) leaves)
60 g feta (preferably Danish, otherwise Greek), or goats cheese)
3 tbsp walnuts (, lightly crushed with your fingers)
2 1/2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar (ordinary, not aged or glazed)
1 tbsp honey
1/2 tsp salt
Black pepper
Directions
Combine the Dressing ingredients in a jar, and shake well. You might need a spoon to break up the honey to mix it in properly. Adjust salt to your taste.
Place rocket lettuce in a serving bowl.
Scatter over beetroot. No need to toss - because of the weight, it should disperse throughout fairly well.
Crumble over the feta and scatter with walnuts.
Drizzle over dressing and serve.
