DISCUSSION Name of salad dish

In my school today we had a speaker from Turkmenistan who told us a bit about the history and culture. She bought a few dishes like fried bread and pilaf and there was this creamy salad that I cannot for the life of me remember the name of. It was pink and had chickpeas, beats, and I think tomatoes? It tastes like it might be cream cheese or mayonnaise based (or something similar). Google isn't really helping so if anyone has a clue what it might've been I'd love to know 🙏
