FAQ
What are the main nutritional benefits of this beetroot salad?
Beetroot provides dietary fiber and polyphenols; yogurt provides calcium and live cultures; horseradish adds heat; together they support a balanced, gut-friendly meal.
Is this recipe suitable for vegetarians or vegans?
It is vegetarian as written (contains yogurt); to make it vegan, substitute plant-based yogurt.
Can I make this dairy-free?
Yes, use plant-based yogurt or lactose-free yogurt and ensure the horseradish is dairy-free.
How should I store leftovers?
Refrigerate in an airtight container within 2 hours of making; best within 1–2 days; yogurt may separate; stir before serving.
Is this gluten-free?
Yes, beets, yogurt, and horseradish are naturally gluten-free; check labels on prepared horseradish or yogurt to avoid cross contamination.
Can I customize with other vegetables?

How spicy is horseradish and can I adjust it?
