This pretty little salad is testament to the fact that sometimes it’s best to keep things simple. The dressing is nothing more than a squeeze of fresh lemon and a drizzle of fruity extra virgin olive oil, highlighting the inherent deliciousness of the beets, avocado, feta and perky balsamic onions.

I rarely buy prepared vegetables, but I have to admit, the Peeled and Steamed Beets from Trader Joe’s below are quite good.

Place sliced onion and balsamic vinegar in a bowl. Stir well to combine and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes (up to 2 hours).
