Stunning image, Nicole…
Where did you find these lovely golden beets this time of year…
these are my all time faves.
Hope that you are well dear friend.
Cannot wait for farmer’s markets in a few months…but I
guess the snow needs to melt first…lol…
I’ve always found beets to be delicious, especially when baked in a mixture of balsamic vinegar and provence herbs or tossed into a salad with goat cheese, but for us wine drinkers the added benefit is that they’re good for your liver!
this site is amazing and has so many resources. I am going to use it in combination with fit4lyfe online so that I can continue to lose weight and get hot for summer lol.. this is amazing.. I am just so happy I am on the right track and there is so much support. I highly recommend people checking out fit4lyfe online, she is soo cheap and I love her and owe her my life seriously
We grow beets every year in the garden and they are by far one of our favorite fresh vegetables. We steam ours and then add the left over water with all of that great redness to the pot that we use to cook whole grain rice. Makes for a very interesting dish.
I love beets – but the deep purple are my favorite. I love them roasted with garlic, thyme and olive oil and then tossed with some green beans, fetaand toasted almonds with a balsamic dressing – yum! Great site!

try this easy way to enjoy fresh beets:
roast 4-6 large, whole beets on a cookie sheet @ 450 F until tender
cool, peel and cut into 1-2 inch cubes
place in a bowl, add 2 tbsps sour cream and 1 tsp grated horseradish (from a jar is fine)
stir gently until beets are coated
add kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
stir some more and serve
enjoy !
