2 tbsp olive oil

Handful of arugula or spinach for added greens

👨🍳 Instructions
Cook the beets:
Roast, boil, or steam the beets until tender (about 40–60 minutes depending on size). Let cool, then peel and cut into bite-sized cubes.
Prepare the vegetables:
Slice cucumber and (optional) red onion. Set aside.
Make the dressing:
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, vinegar or lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and pepper.
Assemble the salad:
In a large bowl, gently toss together the beets, cucumber, red onion (if using), feta, and dill. Drizzle with dressing and toss lightly to combine.
Chill or serve:
Let sit for 10–15 minutes to allow flavors to meld, or refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Serve cold or at room temperature.
