8 healthy (2 1/2 inch diameter) beets
1/2 c. cider vinegar
1 med. clove garlic, crushed
2 tsp. honey
1/2 c. minced red onion
2 scallions, minced (whites and greens)
1 med. cucumber, seeded and finely chopped
2 hard boiled eggs, chopped
2 tbsp. fresh dill, minced (or 1 tsp. dried dill)
2 c. mixed sour cream and yogurt
Salt and pepper to taste

1. Boil the beets, whole, for about 20-25 minutes. Rinse under running water as you rub off their skins. Chop into 1/2 inch bits and while they are still warm, marinate them in vinegar, garlic and honey. Let stand 30 minutes.

2. Add all remaining ingredients. Mix well and chill until very cold.
