Polish Vegetable Salad (Salatka) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    salt
    1/2 small celery root, peeled and cut into chunks
    1 large parsnips, peeled and cut into chunks
    3 carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
    3 red-skinned potatoes, or as desired, peeled and cut into large chunks
    1 (15 ounce) can peas, drained and rinsed
    3 hard-boiled eggs, cooled and cut into 1/4-inch pieces
    2 dill pickles, cut into 1/4-inch slices
    1/2 cup reduced-fat olive oil mayonnaise
    1/2 cup fat-free Greek yogurt
    2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
    salt and ground black pepper to taste
Preparation
    Place celery root, parsnips, carrots, and potatoes in a saucepan; cover with water and add salt. Bring to a boil; cook until vegetables are fork-tender but still firm in the center, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove smaller pieces so they do not overcook. Drain and allow to cool until safe to handle, 5 to 7 minutes. Cut vegetables into 1/4-inch pieces.
    Combine cooked root vegetables, peas, eggs, pickles, in a large bowl. Add mayonnaise, yogurt, and mustard. Mix gently, taking care not to crush the peas. Season salad with salt and pepper.
    Refrigerate salad at least 8 hours to overnight.
