Ingredients

3/4 pound beets (2 large or 8 small), trimmed

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Coarse salt and ground pepper

1/2 cup Greek yogurt (full-fat or 2%)

2 teaspoons sherry vinegar

1 head, Boston lettuce

2 tablespoons fresh tarragon

1/2 cup unsalted pistachios, toasted

Preparation

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place beets in a 12-inch square piece of foil. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil and season with salt and pepper; fold foil into a packet. Roast until beets are easily pierced with a paring knife, 30 to 45 minutes. When cool enough to handle, peel beets and cut into wedges.

Whisk together yogurt, vinegar, and 2 tablespoons oil; season dressing with salt and pepper. Thin as desired with 1 to 2 tablespoons water. Divide lettuce among plates and top with beets, tarragon, pistachios, and dressing. Serve immediately.
