Salad with Beets and Yogurt Dressing image

Greek yogurt is thicker, creamier, and higher in protein than regular yogurt, so it makes a deliciously creamy dressing with a tang that pairs nicely with beets.

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 pound beets (2 large or 8 small), trimmed
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1/2 cup Greek yogurt (full-fat or 2%)
2 teaspoons sherry vinegar
1 head, Boston lettuce
2 tablespoons fresh tarragon
1/2 cup unsalted pistachios, toasted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place beets in a 12-inch square piece of foil. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil and season with salt and pepper; fold foil into a packet. Roast until beets are easily pierced with a paring knife, 30 to 45 minutes. When cool enough to handle, peel beets and cut into wedges.
  • Whisk together yogurt, vinegar, and 2 tablespoons oil; season dressing with salt and pepper. Thin as desired with 1 to 2 tablespoons water. Divide lettuce among plates and top with beets, tarragon, pistachios, and dressing. Serve immediately.

This salad was a disaster! The beets were mushy and the dressing was curdled.

I didn't care for this salad. The beets were too sweet and the dressing was too bland.

This salad was just okay. I thought the dressing was a bit too tangy.

I would have liked the salad more if the beets were roasted instead of boiled.

I'm not a big fan of beets, but I really enjoyed this salad. The yogurt dressing helped to balance out the sweetness of the beets.
