1. In a 1 cup volume measuring glass add the Dijon, the coconut milk, sweetener, and lemon zest. Stir until combined.
2. Slowly drizzle in the extra-virgin olive oil while stirring. Once combined, add the lemon juice a splash at a time, stirring in between.
3. Add sea salt and fresh ground pepper to taste. Pour dressing into a sealable glass jar.
4. Place mixed greens onto a serving plate, and drizzle with a little bit of the dressing (you don't need much because the dressing is very flavorful). Top the greens with the sliced beets. Drizzle with a little more of salad dressing, once again a little goes a long way and garnish with fresh cilantro or basil.
