Beetroot Salad



To complete Monday's BBQ ribs recipe, I made a deliciously fresh beetroot salad from Jamie's 30 Minute Meals to accompany it. This would go perfectly with any type of meat/fish that's put under the grill or on the BBQ or in a sandwich with cooked ham. So simple but quite a bit more exciting than your standard iceberg lettuce.

Ingredients:
1 x 250g pack of cooked vac-packed beetroots
Balsamic vinegar
½ lemon
A bunch of fresh flat-leaf parsley
50g feta cheese

Method:
Grate the beetroot in the food processor or chop it up finely.
Pour in a couple of lugs of balsamic vinegar and a few lugs of extra virgin olive oil.
Squeeze in the juice of ½ a lemon.
Finely chop a bunch of parsley and add most of it. Stir to dress, then tip into a nice serving bowl.
Scatter over the rest of the parsley.
Crumble over the feta.
Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and take to the table.
