Add the red onion, olives, lemon juice, olive oil, honey, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper into a large serving bowl. Toss together and let sit for 30-45 minutes. This will ensure the onions and olives quick pickle and add so much flavor to the salad.
Chop the beets into small cubes and add them to the bowl, along with the parsley and mint. Toss together. Let sit for an additional 15 minutes.
You can enjoy this salad warm, or leave it in the fridge and enjoy it cold over the next few days. It tastes phenomenal either way, although it does have a more intense pickled flavor the longer it sits.
