Orange Beets

I saved this Orange Beets recipe as soon as I saw it. While pickled beets are a favorite here I thought it would be fun to try a hot side dish recipe, and we all loved it! The orange and allspice are a nice flavor combination with beets. The original recipe calls for fresh beets, I used canned, either will work fine. If your crew is a fan of beets, don't hesitate to give this a try folks:@)

    I am embarrassed to tell you that I've never had beets 😱 I think it's because my mother always ate them and I thought they were so slimy as a child I just couldn't do it! I need to grow up and give them a try :)

    I've made some very similiar. They were called Harvard Beets. You know, I haven't made them in a very long time. Guess it's time to try them again. Thanks for the remind.

    I've made the Harvard beets, too, but I like the sound of this spicy, orange version, Lynn. I'll be giving this recipe a try.

    Lynn, The color of your beets is beautiful! Alas, I only like beets if they're thinly sliced, oven roasted and disguised as pretty colored potato chip :)
