It seems I often center my recipe posts around my husband's quirky food preferences. For his sake, I am sorry. But the truth is in our house a successful recipe has to meet four tough criteria:
1. It has to satisfy my desire for gourmet taste on a casual budget;
2. It has to be acceptable to the four little people picking over it;
3. It has to be healthy; and
4. My husband has to go, "Mmm, wow. This is good!"
And honestly, given my husband's unique palate, the latter is often the toughest medal to win. And that brings me to beets.
