This sounds mouth watering. I like the idea of the nutrients of beets mixed with the protein packed quinoa. Can't wait to try it. HH is a lucky guy! This sounds mouth watering.

Beets are one of my favourite vegetables and one of my favourite foods in general. I still can't believe that I went so many years only eating them once a year at a holiday dinner (the ones that come out of a can). Now of course I try to eat them all the time! And speaking of underdog vegetables, I finally tried celery root. Not a big fan of that one - I found it kind of bitter. Maybe there's a particular way it needs to be cooked? (I roasted it.)

Glad you enjoy the stories. :) Does a cookbook count?? Courtney, Thanks so much! I do the same thing every time I cook beets--always forget about the staining and go around with pink fingernail beds for days! Lucy, We (under)dogs have to stick together! ;) And Rocky (the first one, anyway) is worth seeing, especially if you're in a sentimental, sappy kind of mood. Great for a cool winter's day!

I always hated beets when I was a kid, even made mom keep them at the other end of the table :) I tried them again this year and love them! This sounds right up my alley, probably with a little goat cheese!! Congrats on the milestone!!

I adore beets (but don't eat them nearly enough, generally cause of the red dye factor). This recipe sounds drool worthy. I've starred it for slightly warmer weather (that is thankfully on it's way).
