  --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    2          teaspoons  fresh lemon juice
    1           teaspoon  finely chopped garlic
    1           teaspoon  salt
    1 1/2           cups  drained yogurt -- or greek-style yogurt, or labne

  Combine the lemon juice, garlic and salt in a bowl and
  let stand 10

  Sortun recommends Chioggia (pink) or golden beets; you
  can use red beets
  but the salad will be a shocking pink.

  bringing the fat down to
  3g.
