- 1 medium beet, cooked

- 2 cloves garlic
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Recipe Note
To cook the beet, wash it thoroughly and trim off any greens. Wrap the beet in aluminum foil and roast in a preheated oven at 400°F for about 40-50 minutes, or until it is easily pierced with a fork. Allow the beet to cool, then peel and chop it before using it in the recipe.
