True story: my husband hates beets. So what do I do when he’s not home? I make beets. Pretty much every time. I love them! I haven’t met a root vegetable that I didn’t like, but beets are definitely one of my favorites because of their earthy, sweet taste and pretty deep red color. Can you tell I’m a sucker for pretty colors?
Rosemary is one of my favorite herbs to use in conjunction with beets. It brings out the sweet taste and compliments the earthy flavor perfectly. Add some butter and lemon zest and you’ve got the perfect side dish for your next dinner. I love this paleo-friendly dish with a good steak and a side salad.
Enjoy!
