Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Wrap each beet in a piece of foil, sealing tight. Place all the beet

packages on a foil-lined baking dish. Bake for 1 - 1 1/4 hours. Leave

the beet packages on the baking dish, but carefully pull open a corner

of the foil package to let the steam escape. Let the beet packages sit

in this manner for 5-10 minutes. Carefully open the foil package more

fully. Let the beet packages sit in this manner for an additional 5-10

minutes or until the beets can be handled comfortably. Slide your

fingers over the surface of the beets and the skin of the beets will

peel off easily. Cut the beets into 1/4-inch julienne sticks.

Coarsely grate the apples and combine with the beet sticks. Add the

remaining ingredients and blend well. Taste and adjust seasoning with

salt and pepper. Serve cold.

Note: Faye Levy says that 2 tablespoons sour cream can replace 1/2 the

mayonnaise for meatless dinners
