Simple Beet Salad with Lemon and Onion

Ingredients

• 4 medium beets

• 1 onion (red onion works well)

• 3 tablespoons lemon juice

• 2 tablespoons oil

• 1 teaspoon sugar

• Salt

• Black pepper

Instructions

Cook the beets in salted water until tender. Remove from the water and let them cool. Slice into strips, cubes, or half-moons. Thinly slice the onion as well.

Transfer the vegetables to a bowl and season. Let sit for at least an hour before serving to allow the flavors to absorb.
