We have an overabundance of beets this year. One can only use so many pickled beets, and harvard beets do not appeal. What do you do with beets?

I like them just as simple, boiled beets .... of course, with butter and salt/pepper! You can freeze them, to reheat later.

And for me, you can't have too many pickled beets!

If you have way too much donate them to the local food banks or senior centers.
I personally don't eat beets to me they taste like dirt sorry. I did make a salad last night and put beet slices on my salad.

Good suggestion to share your produce with a soup kitchen or food pantry.

What would I do with them? I would not plant them in the first place, I don't like beets in any shape or form.

Do you have links for the quilt blocks from your state or country? If so post the link here and put at the top of your message from where? I will create a list of them in "my pages" by states and country for all of us to see them by catergories! Th
