Beet salad with creamy yogurt and garlic is a quick vegetable side dish you can prepare in about five minutes. Simply dice cooked beets and pickles, then mix with green peas, processed cheese, crushed garlic, and thick, creamy yogurt. The sweet beets pair well with the sour pickles and mild cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Instructions

Dice the ingredients and crush the garlic. Add the yogurt cream and cheese, mix, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Tip: You can buy vacuum-packed cooked beets to have this salad ready in just a few minutes. Dice the processed cheese straight from the refrigerator so the cubes hold their shape without smearing.
