Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Cut off the tops of the beets, scrub them, and place them on the baking sheet. Coat them with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, and roast them in the oven for an hour. Remove from the oven, and when they are cool enough to handle, peel and cut them into 1/2-inch cubes.
- Bring a small pot of salted water to a boil, and cook the potatoes until they are tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from the water and allow to cool before peeling and cutting into 1/2-inch cubes. Cook the carrot for about 5 minutes in that same boiling salted water. Remove with a slotted spoon, cool and cut into 1/2-inch rounds.
- Whisk together the vinegar, garlic, mustard, sugar and salt and freshly ground pepper to taste in a salad bowl. Stream in the remaining 4 tablespoons olive oil. Toss in the beets, the potatoes, the carrot, the pickle, the apple and the eggs. Stir until everything is just coated with the vinaigrette. Serve at room temperature garnished with fresh dill, or refrigerate and serve the next day.

SWEDISH PICKLED BEET AND APPLE SALAD
According to Marcus Samuelsson, this is a very traditional Swedish salad and a classic accompaniment to Swedish meatballs. I made it, using his pickled beet recipe (posted here), but you could certainly substitute your own favorite. It's very easy to put together and should be served warm or at room temperature, so if you make it ahead, make sure to let it 'unchill' before serving. I have made it with real mayo and sour cream and with lite mayo and fat-free sour cream--you can hardly tell the difference and the latter saves a lot of fat and calories.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
- Add the onion and apples and saute for three to five minutes, until apples have softened.
- Transfer to a medium bowl and sprinkle with the lemon juice.
- Add the beets and capers and toss well.
- Mix the mayo and sour cream together, then add to the salad, tossing gently to coat.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Transfer to serving bowl or individual plates and garnish with the parsley and chives.
- Note: Use a glass or stainless bowl because the beets will stain plastic and some ceramics.
- Note 2: You can also do this with baby beets if you're lucky enough to find them at a farmer's market--increase the number of beets relative to their size.
