This salad is perfect for a healthier winter option. It is packed full of great vegetables and delicious New Zealand lamb from our Westmeat butcher store. Beetroot and feta are great flavours that really compliment the lamb. Very easy and pretty quick to whip up so it is the perfect mid week meal. Enjoy!
