Yup, it’s another salad, this time with beets, tofu feta, walnuts and my family’s favorite balsamic dressing. This is a dressing that I make all the time and every time, they say that I should bottle and sell this one! I sure hope that you enjoy it as much as we do.
I used a mixture of spinach and romaine because I love the texture combination. Sometimes a spinach salad seems a little flat to me, adding the crunchy romaine makes it much more interesting. We actually all like beets too, so this salad was perfect for everyone in the family.
Let me know if you try this, or any of my other salad recipes and enjoy!
