I picked 2 pounds of beets today, so my 100 pound produce challenge is up to just under 21 pounds. Not too shabby.

How are you going to eat them? The only way I have ever eaten them is pickled, the way my mom always makes them.

I was going to make Polish beet soup and then steam the rest as a side dish for dinner this week.

i make a salad for dinner sometimes which is delicious. basicaly it's roast beetroot, feta, rocket leaves and crushed walnuts. danish feta is best but you can use any, and you can add slices of roast pumpkin too if you like. i usually roast the beetroot in slices splashed with balsamic and olive oil.
