Beetroot salad with chickpeas and feta

The absolutely most delicious things are often simple and quick to prepare. When I’m not sprinkling sugar on my beetroot (yes, I really do and it’s delicious!), I love to make a beetroot salad with it.

By the way, I like the little red tubers not only because of their taste, they also allow me to always play a really good prank on at least one person. This is especially useful on Halloween. But also whenever I feel like scaring the people around me. I’m sure you know what I mean: beetroot stains really well and you’d think you’d stabbed yourself after preparing them. *Has never happened before, knock on wood 3x; spit spit spit*.

A beetroot salad always looks a little different, because I like to check what I still have in the fridge and then often whip up something spontaneously. Leftovers par excellence! But there’s one variation that I’ve really taken to lately. I had a few cooked chickpeas left over. So? That’s right, put them in! Walnuts? Put them in! Feta? A friend of mine once said that feta is the new ketchup for her: it has to go everywhere. So put that in too! Add a little mint and parsley, some carrot and the salad is ready. All that’s missing is the dressing.

I decided against a thin dressing with lemon and oil and whipped up a cream of yoghurt, tahini, lemon and a little olive oil. The creamy texture is really fantastic with the beetroot, tender chickpeas and crunchy walnuts.

If you need another argument, it takes a maximum of 20 minutes to prepare – if you’re slow 😉
