Salad Composé - Upcycling boiled beets

This was a tasty and attractive use of leftover beets. Waste not, want not.

Ingredients:

- 4 smallish boiled beets sliced
- 5 small tomatoes sliced
- 2 inch square of feta cheese sliced
- a teaspoon of finely grated lemon zest and juice of half a lemon
- a teaspoon of finely chopped fresh rosemary
- drizzle of extra virgin olive oil
- sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste


Basically all you do with a salad composé is exactly that... you compose it whatever way you like. In this case, I made a fairly geometric design with the vegetables. Just before serving, I sprinkled the salad with the zest, rosemary, lemon juice , salt and pepper and olive oil.
