Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Scrub the medium beets under running water, then wrap each individually in aluminum foil. Place them on a baking sheet and roast for 45 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Once roasted, carefully unwrap the beets and let them cool for about 10 minutes. After they're cool enough to handle, peel off the skins and dice the beets into bite-sized pieces.
- Wash the Persian cucumbers thoroughly under water. Cut them into thin rounds or half-moons.
- Finely chop a handful of fresh parsley and dill, and crumble the feta cheese into small pieces.
- In a small bowl, combine apple cider vinegar, honey, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and a pinch of salt. Whisk until the mixture is well emulsified and smooth.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced beets, sliced cucumbers, crumbled feta, chopped parsley, and dill. Gently pour the vinaigrette over the mixture and toss everything together until well combined.
- Transfer the salad to a plate, or refrigerate for 15-30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld further.

Notes
Allow the salad to chill after assembling for better flavor melding. Use fresh herbs and vegetables for optimal flavor and nutrition.
