If you want to put them in salads, grating them finely raw tastes very good.<br /><br />Rose, I like having very natural, simple dishes. We eat like that a lot. I think it's fun having different colors of the same food - very kid friendly. Interesting price comparison - I'm always looking out for ways to save money.<br /><br />Good for you, Flower! At least your in-laws share their bounty!<br /><br />FF, that was the best pic out of the four I took that showed the beans.

I really like the idea of mixing the beet greens with kale. <br /><br />I usually buy the beets with greens on because you get two veggies in one, but recently I bought some of the beets w/o greens to see which way came out cheaper...the beets with greens on were a better deal.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02114977921830686539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3561395185167982469.post-32185315705671821202011-04-22T10:50:07.551-07:002011-04-22T10:50:07.551-07:00I never liked beets growing up.

I guess next up is trying in a salad or your way. :) Now, I really never thought about eating their greens. I'll have to try them out.
