This salad was a bit too time-consuming to make. I think I would prefer a salad that is quicker and easier to prepare.

I found the beets to be a bit too overpowering in this salad. I think I would prefer a salad with a more balanced flavor profile.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less honey in the dressing.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I omitted the walnuts from this salad. It was still very tasty, but I think the walnuts would have added a nice crunch.

I substituted goat cheese for the feta cheese and it was delicious! I highly recommend trying this variation.

I'm not a big fan of beets, but I actually enjoyed this salad. The tangerines and honey-lime dressing really helped to balance out the earthy flavor of the beets.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover beets. I had some roasted beets in the fridge and this salad was the perfect way to use them up. It was quick and easy to make, and the flavors were delicious.
