Sour Cream Beet Salad

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Step 2

If beets have tops, slice off the tops as closely to the beet as possible. Wash beets thoroughly. There is no need to dry the beets.

Step 3

Wrap each beet in foil tightly. Place foil-wrapped beets on a baking sheet. Bake for approximately 50 minutes. Beets should be tender to the touch.

Step 4

When the beets are cool enough to handle, hold them with a paper towel and push off the skins.

Step 5

In a medium-sized bowl, combine sour cream, white onion, salt, sugar, and balsamic vinegar.

Step 6

Dice beets and stir them into the sour cream dressing.

Step 7

Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator in an air-tight container until serving.
