Dearest Diary-
Oh Diary ever since New York I am addicted to beets. I feel like my Mom used to maybe serve canned beets- and as you know Diary, I hate ALL canned vegetables. So I think that is why I was so turned off when Ker and I ordered some bruschetta with goat cheese and beets the night I got kicked off The Next Food Network Star. BUT OHHH MY do I love beets now! BUT you have to roast them... none of that canned crap. Gabe is out at a dinner meeting and I'm gonna dice my beets and make a nice salad with goat cheese and a champagne vainagrette. Maybe beets for breakfast too....it's love
TO ROAST A BEET
Cut off the tops (save the greens for another use- cook them down like turnip greens)
Wrap each beet in aluminum foil
Bake at 425 for 35 min
Wait til they cool
Peel the skin off
Dice into cubes, slices whatever floats your boat..
WASH YOUR HANDS!

Glad to see you are carrying on the beet legacy...those beets were gooood!
Will you make me some next time I see you?
For the record, I never served canned beets. Pickled,chilled,jarred beets,yes! They are great as a garnish on a salad, or as simple side. I have a jar in the fridge right here in Maine. LLL
Yes Ker I will make you beets when I see you next. I'm on the hunt for golden beets now...
