I got some wonderful fresh beets with the greens on at a farmers market last night. Anyone have any tasty and unusual beet recipes they want to share?

    Use the greens in a soup or stew. Roast the carrots and use them in a salad or as a side.

    Roast with onions, then add balsamic.

    Shave with shaved carrots and eat with your favorite salad dressing.

    Fry, then use wonton wrappers and low fat cheese to make healthy homemade ravioli.

    Mash and lightly butter, just like potatoes!

    I steam them whole in pressure cooker with least amount of water needed. Skins slide off easily when done. Then dice & make a salad with farro, scallions, pumpkin seeds, mint, citrus vinaigrette & goat cheese.
    Don't forget to cook the beet greens too! So tasty braised with onion, garlic, and crushed red pepper.
