Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

2 beets -- wash, trim

water

2 yellow apples -- core, slice

1/2 cup plain active culture yogurt

2 tablespoons flax seed oil

or extra virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon salt -- (herbal sea)

1/4 teaspoon dill

 

Place beets in pressure cooker or saucepan, and cover with water. Seal pressure

cooker. Bring to pressure; reduce heat and cook until beets are soft when

pierced with a fork, 30 minutes. Reduce pressure.

 

Alternatively, place beets in saucepan with water. Cover and bring to a boil;

reduce heat to simmer for 55 minutes.

 

Place beets in a large bowl of cold water. Peel the beets. One way is to place a

beet in the palm of your hand, hold it under the water and slip the skin off.

Discard skins. Place on a plate suitable for cutting.

 

Using a fork, pierce a beet to keep it from rolling. With a paring knife; halve;

quarter, then cut into slices. Place sliced beet in a medium bowl.

 

Add apples to the beets. Toss with yogurt, oil, lemon juice, salt and dill.

 

Eat as is or chill for 30 minutes and serve.

 

IN THIS RECIPE the beets taste better if they are peeled after cooking, as

discussed above.
