Beet and Carrot Salad with Feta
Red beets and carrots form a simple warm salad, perfect for a colorful side dish or light meal. We top it with crumbled feta and tangy, nutty za’atar spice that’s signature to Middle Eastern cooking.
All of Anyday’s recipes are tested (and retested!) in many different microwaves and home kitchens to make sure they work — and work well.
