I keep trying to like them, but the only way I seem to enjoy beets is in the form of beet chips (or grated into a cake). I guess I will never earn my culinary wings.
ReplyDeleteThe garden flower is beautiful.
Susan, I’ll be visiting my daughter this weekend and thought I’d skip this weeks French Friday. However, after seeing your salad and reading your suggestion to buy the beets already cooked, I think I may be able to get this one done. Looks delicious…I love beets!
ReplyDeleteI thought I would be sneaky and try to be on time for 2 weeks in a row and use the already cooked kind 'cause I"m working late every night. I went to the store and they were out! Harumph. I adore beets! I should just stay up late tonight and make 'em 'cause these look great!
ReplyDeleteI like the way you made this recipe quick and easy for an afterwork meal;-)
ReplyDeleteI love the beet salad which has the earthy and minerals flavor and matches well with the tangy vinaigrette...and the herbs...mmmmm it is delicious and it went well with my pan seared salmon :) Have a great weekend !
ReplyDeleteIt's a great recipe to make in time for dinner after a long day, isn't it?? Especially if you get the beets cooked early enough! :)
ReplyDeleteYour beets look good but OMG that gladiola is gorgeous! I'm going to try the raspberry chocolate ice cream next. The Perfect Scoop is the perfect ice cream book:)
ReplyDeleteI used pre-cooked beets too and they made this salad a breeze. Probably one of the easiest recipes in the book if you don't have to cook the beets. And still quite tasty.
ReplyDeleteYour depression glass dish is just lovely, Susan! I am going to have to find those pre-cooked beets at the store because it is a little too hot to be turning on the oven, although with the baking we have to do for our groups it looks like it will be unavoidable. :) Love your photos!
ReplyDeleteI loved this, and I was surprised by how well the microwave technique worked. I don't know why I don't use the microwave more often!
ReplyDeleteLike you, I picked up the pre-cooked beets too. I love them. This was easy. Happy that you enjoyed. What a beautiful photo!
ReplyDeleteLove the color of your gladiolus Susan!
ReplyDeleteI love that you tossed this salad together quickly with the use of pre-cooked beets. That's the only kind I've every purchased - Trader Joe's has baby beets and Whole Foods has the big guys. However, this week at the Farmer's Market, I bought some, 102 degrees in LV and I'm roasting beets. At least I didn't have to "frost" them, Susan. Yours looked good enough to eat! I hope you had a wonderful getaway in Portland. I know about Powell's but have never been there. Envious.
ReplyDeleteThis one was definitely quick, and so delicious! I loved the bright flavor of the lime zest and juice. What a pretty serving dish!
