Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°. Trim the ends off the beets and place them on a sheet of foil on a sheet pan. Drizzle with half of the salt and the olive oil and wrap the foil packet up. Roast in the oven for about 1 hour or until a knife can easily be inserted. Remove and let cool.
- Once the beets are cooled, remove the peels and shred them on the large holes of a cheese grater. Put them into a serving bowl and add the lemon juice, mint, and remaining salt and toss well.
- Gently stir in the greek yogurt (try to make a pretty swirl!) and top with crushed walnuts.
Notes
- This dish is a great make-ahead recipe if you have a dinner or party coming up and want to get some of the side dishes made ahead of time.
