Ingredients
- Even beet haters will love this salad. Okay, maybe not but if any recipe could win over a fussy eater, it?s this one. It?s super simple to whip together and with a piece of grilled chicken or fish you?ve got another dinner in the bag.
- Tip ? If you can peel an apple, you can peel a beet. That?s right, an apple peeler is the perfect tool to peel a beet.
- 1 cup low fat plain yogurt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh mint
- 1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh cilantro
- Coarse salt to taste
- 1 pound beets, about two large, trimmed and peeled
- 1 large apple, peeled and cored
Directions
In the bowl you?ll serve the salad in, whisk together yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, mint and cilantro. Stir until combined, season to taste with salt. Set aside in refrigerator.
Using a V-slicer or the largest holes on a box grater, julienne the beets and apples. Add to bowl with dressing, toss to coat. Serve immediately.

Even the beet lovers among the group at our Labor Day cookout were not impressed with the flavor of this dish. Also the amounts were not exact enough, for example 1 lb. of beets. I prefer measurements as in 1 cup of grated beets. Since I have no food scale, I had to rely on the produce dept. scales and the beets had a lot of tops that also weighed in.
