I’m looking ahead… to spring. By making colorful and happy food and beverage.
A historic arctic blast is descending on the Northeast, though our area may be spared the worst of it. I can feel the dreaded cold creeping in…
I’ll be staying under the covers, sipping my juice and nibbling on my salad, made pretty and happy by the addition of the rarely used beets. Rarely used in my kitchen, that is.
But that’s going to change… I bought a boatload of beets. Okay, not a boatload, just a bagful. Enough to make my palms tinged shockingly pink for a few days.
Does anybody know of good beet recipes I should try?

Hi, Angie! I love your colourful salad and refreshment, beets are so underrated! In Mexico, I only know of one recipe specifically calling for them, but it is delicious, though; here’s the link if you are interested: https://mysliceofmexico.ca/2019/12/18/mexican-christmas-eve-salad/

You’re welcome. The apple slices sound yummy! And easy enough for the husband to make… maybe, lol.
