Reviews
Excellent recipe! Even better the second day and for a zip I added some balsamic glaze!
I loved the recipe, just as it is! I served it over Argula lettuce with red wine vinegar and a touch of olive oil
I did not care for this recipe. Is the amount of garlic shown incorrectly? It had many good reviews so I am a little mystified.
A great way to kick up a plain old can of beets! It’s quick, with few ingredients but tastes like a lot more time went into it. Don’t be afraid of the onion and garlic -the flavors totally mellow once cooked. This makes enough for 4 small sides. Nice presentation. A keeper.
Very good salad. I made a slight change. I added a little balsamic vinegar. Any mild vinegar would work. Just gave it a little zing. I did use freshly baked beets instead of canned.
I have made this recipie several times. It tastes great, but I would recommnd leaving a little of the beet juice in the mixture because it gets a little dry.
I made this and was a little disappointed. It was okay but not great. I don’t think that I will make this again.
Was very disappointed. Thought this would be good, but it just wasn’t. I served it on a bed of shredded lettuce for extra color which looked pretty. We added some vinegar for extra flavor, but it still needed something. Won’t be making this again.
I thought it was simple enough to be great!…I used freshly roasted beets and eye-balled the rest. I will definatly use this recipe again Thanx!
Sorry, I love all of the ingredients, but I did not care for this combination.
Pretty good…..I also added some red wine vinegar….will use red onion next time. Thanks!
BEST BEET SALAD!!! I have to admit changing it to my taste though. I prefer herbed goat cheese to feta and I served it over arugula. This combination, with the herbs from the cheese, required no additional seasoning. GREAT SIDE DISH and very festive looking for holidays.

I make this about once a week now. It is absolutely delicious. I do not cook the onions, I thin slice some of one raw. Getting a bit of everything in one bite is heaven.
Phenomenal!
This was tasty and not nearly as garlicky as I thought it would be. I used blue cheese because I had it on hand, but next time I’ll use the feta and add some oregano, as well as more onions. I used raw, shredded beets, and I added red wine vinegar to pump up the flavor a bit.
I just tried this recipe and my husband and I loved it! I will definitely be making this again. I just eye-balled the amount of feta as I think that’s more based on personal taste and I didn’t add any salt because the feta had enough. Thanks for this tasty and easy recipe!
