Ingredients
  

  • 6 medium-large roasted beets or two bunches
  • 1 red bell pepper sliced
  • ½ red onion sliced
  • ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • ½ cup white wine vinegar I use white Modena vinegar
  • 1 tbsp. honey
  • 1 garlic clove crushed or grated
  • 1 tsp. fresh thyme chopped
  • ½ tsp. oregano dried or fresh
  • ¾ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp. ground pepper
  • ½ tsp. red pepper flakes optional

Instructions
 

  • Cut the beets into 1-inch cubes.
  • Combine the beets, red bell peppers, and red onion into a large serving bowl.
  • Next, make the salad dressing. Combine the extra virgin olive oil, white wine vinegar, honey, fresh thyme, oregano, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes in a large measuring cup or bowl. Stir with a whisk until the dressing is emulsified. You will have to whisk for about one minute for the vinegar and oil to emulsify.
  • Pour the dressing over the beets and other vegetables into the serving bowl. Stir to combine to ensure the dressing covers all of the vegetables.
  • This step is optional, but you can put plastic wrap or a silicone stretch lid on top and let it chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
  • Serve and enjoy.
