I am really learning to love beets, and my husband is too. I guess it's going to take me awhile to blog about 365 different vegetables to eat when I'm still stuck on the first one.
I ran across a recipe in Deborah Madison's vegetarian cookbook (the best cookbook ever, IMHO) for baked beets with horseradish sauce and decided I'd try it. Of course, I followed her recipe more in spirit than actuality (I did not use fresh horseradish, I baked the beets completely different, and I did my usual thing to vegetarian recipes, adding some kind of pork.) But I've gotta giver her props because I never would have thought of horseradish on beets. It was so good, I decided I had to take a photo of it on my good china.
Incidentally, Deborah Madison has joined the blogosphere. She has some delicious whole foods types of recipes posted already. Check out her blog at www.deborahmadison.com/blog
And the beets before they went in the oven. I love beets!
Beets & Pork with Horseradish Sauce
2 pounds boneless pork, (a small cut, like tenderloin, which would be about 2 tenderloins)
5-6 beets
1/3 cup shredded horseradish, (from a jar)
2 tablespoons mayonnaise, or silken tofu
Preheat oven to 350. Scrub the beets and slice them in quarters. You do not need to peel them, since it is easier to do after they are baked. Line a baking sheet with foil and grease it. Put the beets on one half, brush them with oil, and sprinkle salt and pepper over them. Fold the foil over to cover them. Bake them for 1 hour, then remove the baking sheet from the oven. Raise the oven temperature to 400. Unfold to foil so it is again lining the baking sheet. Butterfly the pork (slice it down the middle without cutting all the way through so you can open it like a book). Lay it on the empty half of the baking sheet, sprinkling it with salt and pepper as well. Return the sheet to the oven and bake an additional 20-30 minutes. When they are done, allow the beets to cool a few minutes and the beet peels should come off quickly and easily. Or just remove them as you eat them, like a potato.
Mix the horseradish with the mayonnaise or tofu and drizzle over the top of the pork and beets.

Restaurants should realise that if they want customers to carry on dining out then they need to lower their prices. It's not rocket science.

Next time I'll put on some lederhose and sing "Adelvice". That should shatter the Captain Von Trapp illusions most thoroughly..

Yeah the phrase, "you get what you pay for," seems operative here :). Having taken some art classes, I assure you that at least 95% of the people who want to take their clothes off for you are not people you want to take their clothes off :)

I loved the kettle caramel flavor, so did my boyfriend. The popcorn is crunchy since it is covered with caramel. It sounds wierd but it is worth the try!Check these guys out for really good, and unique, flavors. The cheese course duo is one of my favorites, but I've liked everything I've tried. Too bad they're in Scottsdale. Time for a trip back.
