Sure beets the rest of 'em

I discovered how delicious this root crop is when I first tasted it in a salad we ordered in Geneva. Seems like I had quite a few discoveries from that place, huh? 

Beets have this sweet taste with a crunchy and lightly rough texture. They're perfect in salads drizzled with either French or Italian dressing.

Reasons to try this out: Beets are highly nutritious and “cardiovascular health” friendly root vegetables. Certain unique pigment antioxidants present in this plant have found to offer protection against coronary artery disease and stroke, lower cholesterol levels in the body and have anti-aging effects.

Got these photos from the internet.



To good health!
