We love beets and potatoes, so this was a great dish for us. I added some extra lime, cut back on the mustard (personal preference) and added a little ground coriander to this and it came out really good.

Excellent! I made this with red beets, which of course turned everything pink. Next time - going with your idea of yellow beets to make it more interesting. Regardless, the taste was fantastic - so much better than the mayo-laden versions. I loved the tanginess! Made for CQ4 play, Team Happy Campers. Thanks for posting!

This is a spectacular salad. It did taste even better after sitting a half hour, so I recommend that.
