Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Start with the beets so they can absorb the dressing.
  2. Place them in a bowl and drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice.
  3. Season lightly with salt and black pepper, then toss gently.
  4. Add mint leaves and fold them in carefully.
  5. Scatter the cheese over the top.
  6. Finish with seeds or nuts if using, just before serving.

Tips

  • Tear the mint, don’t chop it — the flavor stays cleaner.
  • Taste the beets before adding salt; some are naturally sweeter.
  • Add the cheese last so it keeps its texture.
