Great salad recipe as-is! I think the key with the onions is to use sweet onion. I also let them soak in the dressing before adding the rest of the ingredients. Read More

This is a great way to use up beets from the garden. It was very tasty even without having the sweet onions and parsley to include. I also used feta since that's what we had on hand. I always wear gloves now when working with the beets and it makes life so much easier. My husband just suggested maybe adding a little more honey next time. I will definitely be making again and probably need to double recipe since everyone enjoyed so much. Read More

I LOVE pickled beets and this tastes just like them! I could have eaten the whole bowl by myself. I didn't even include the walnuts onion or parsley and they were still that delicious. I used my pressure cooker which cooked the beets in 15 minutes vs 1 hour in the oven. Read More

I thought I would eat this entire dish myself! The onion dare I say it...overpowers the dish a bit I would scale back to a scant tablespoon or omit it to really concentrate on the beet/blue cheese flavor. I was concerned there wouldn't be enough dressing but it was a perfect light coat. I always roast beets so this will be such a welcome addition. Thanks! Read More

I made this recipe per directions and it was wonderful. If one is not fond of feta cheese this salad made with blue cheese is great. Am making it again for dinner and I will be made again many times. Read More

This made me love beets! Simple to make and very tasty. I like to add the feta cheese and walnuts right before eating to keep it crunchy and bright. Oh that parsley is more important than you think. I forgot once and couldn't put my finger on what was "off" about it. Read More
