Ingredients
Salad ingredients
150 gr fresh spinach
0.5 cup(s) sliced canned beets, drained (85 gr)
Dressing
2 tbsp(s) olive oil (27 gr)
1 tbsp(s) lemon juice (15 gr)

10 walnut halves (20 gr)

Instructions
- Wash the spinach leaves - preferably baby spinach leaves (hand-chop if larger, yet keep in mind that overgrown spinach tends to be bitter) and place them in a salad dish or bowl
- Add the sliced beets in the dish too
- Prepare the salad dressing: put the olive oil, lemon juice, salt & pepper in a small jar with lid and shake to combine
- I prefer using my mini coffee mixer
- Spread it all over the salad and mix
- Optional: Garnish with walnuts and/or goat cheese. They are an amazing addition!
