Ingredients
For the dressing
- Small shallot (minced) 1 pc
- Olive oil 1/4 cup or 60 g
- Orange (2 tbsp of juice + zest) 1 pc
- Sherry vinegar 2 tbsp
- Honey or Maple syrup 2 tbsp
- Dijon mustard (honey flavor) 1 tsp

For the salad
- Beets (trimmed and scrubbed) 1-2 pcs
- Red grapefruit 1 pc
- Oranges 1-2 pcs
- Ripe avocado ½-1 pcs
- Crumbled Feta, fresh mint (any green) and flaky salt for serving
Instructions
- Clean the beets, then wrap them in foil or parchment paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about an hour, or until tender.
- Grate the peel of an orange, then use a juicer to extract the fresh juice. Finely chop the shallot
- In a small jar with a lid, combine the chopped shallot, orange zest, orange juice, olive oil, vinegar, mustard, honey, and salt. Secure the lid and shake vigorously until smooth and well mixed
- Slice the orange, grapefruit; cut the peeled avocado and baked, cooled beetroot into slices
- Arrange all the salad ingredients in a serving dish in any order you like—whether it’s a chaotic mix or a beautiful sequence, it’s up to you! Sprinkle feta cheese crumbs on top. Drizzle the dressing over everything, then add mint leaves and a sprinkle of salt flakes, if desired. Serve immediately. It looks incredible!
Notes
-
Beets can be prepared in advance, so when it’s time to assemble the salad, the cooking process takes only a few minutes.
-
Sherry vinegar can be substituted with apple or raspberry vinegar, both of which also add great flavor.
