Some tips on beets from Just Food.
What's red or gold or striped all over? Beets!
If you're guilty of forsaking beets in the summer months, you're missing out! Unlike the full-grown winter version, the root of young summer beets can be eaten raw and makes a beautiful addition to salads. Summer beets also usually have their greens attached, which can be used like Swiss chard. Still not convinced? Check out the beet tips below for more inspiration.
*Beet greens are an excellent source of Vitamins A and C.
*To prolong shelf-life, store your beet roots and greens separately.
*Beets taste especially delicious with: citrus flavors like apple cider vinegar or lemon juice; bold spices like mustard, cilantro, and curry; and tangy dairy like yogurt, sour cream, or goat cheese
