GARLICKY BEET SPREAD WITH YOGURT, DILL AND HORSERADISH
This recipe for an easy appetizer borrows from the Ashkenazi tradition, making it a perfect Hanukkah offering. Roasted beets, dill, walnuts and horseradish are whirred in a blender with yogurt, garlic and olive oil, coming together into a pungent magenta purée. It is thick enough to serve on latkes, and creamy enough to go it alone as a dip with vegetables. (The New York Times)

GARLICKY BEET DELIGHT
This is a simple but elegant dish of beets tossed with a tangy garlic vinaigrette dressing. I use more than the two cloves of garlic that the recipe originally calls for... but that is because I LOVE garlic :).
