{glorious golden beets}

another beautiful piece of produce i picked up at the cutest organic store in town….

have you ever had golden beets?! i just loooooove them! i am pretty sure you can keep the skin on – so long as you scrub it pretty thoroughly. i just peel mine. these were so cute and little!

love the colour!

i usually just steam mine. i find them to be so delicious, i don’t even add any S and/or P. i think they have the most unique flavour. i just love to put them in salads or just munch on them alone… so good! beets are loaded with vitamins and minerals and they are just an all around amazing vegetable!

One of my favourite vegetables. I’ve written a blog post/love letter to golden beets before as well. 🙂 http://foodundercontrol.com/2013/05/11/golden-beets/

I’ve only had nasty pickled beets before, but never beautifully steamed fresh ones. You’ve encouraged me to pick up the pretty beets I’ve been admiring at the grocery store!
