This Green Salad with Beets is simple, beautiful, and yummy. You can add tomatoes and sliced cucumbers for a little variety.
Green Salad With Beets, Walnuts & Feta
I like simple canned, sliced beets. Do you? Beets are a bit sweet and add some jazz to any salad. Top a Green Salad with Beets, toasted walnuts, and a bit of Feta cheese. Beautiful, delicious, and good for you. And so simple with canned beets.
Did you know that one cup of beets gives you 37% of your needed folic acid, plus most of the B vitamins? (If you are pregnant or want to become pregnant, you really need to make sure you get enough folic acid. So eat your beets!)
You can make a salad even better with Roasted Beets.

What You Need
I use a toaster oven for this recipe. I like my walnuts toasted. A salad spinner is helpful for washing greens. Whatever you buy, be sure to buy the best you can afford so it lasts a lifetime.
