For those with BP issues...red beets are a good source of nitrates which is converted to Nitric Oxcide in the body. Nitric Oxcide can help control blood pressure and possibly give a energy boost.
Remember what your mother told you, "Eat your vegetables"
I never used to like beetroot as a kid, but now I have my Husband eating lots of salads etc.. But now we love them. Even baked like a fat chip (fries) lovely with a quiche !I
That's great...try roasting with carrots...delicious. I eat them plain in a salad or with goat cheese or feta cheese..find a good vingarette to compliment. Many ideas on the internet.
Cheers
When is the latest Endeavor season coming out...I love the newer British shows...
Carrots, feta and beets, oh my. Carrots, feta and beets, oh my. Put 'em up, put 'em up. I am just joking and know that you are a proud beet father. Very nice picture. I did not do a garden this year. It will be 108 degrees today and I am on a water meter. Got lots of tomatoes last year. I really don't care for tomatoes. If I didn't have a microwave I would die within 2 weeks. I baked bread and made mayonnaise many, many years ago. I have become a puppet of the agra business. The pharma business. The zebra striped politicians. The list goes on. My generation thought they would change the world, it didn't happen. I am glad you travel to the beet of a different drummer. The world needs you. But I ain't eating no beets. Or leftovers.

Thanks...I took up gardening when I was dx in 2019...the debates on nutrition and prostate cancer are manifold on this site. I'm just trying to add a topic of discussion that anyone can participate and add information we all can use as Stage 4 PCA members.
We eat them regularly though I tend to go with gold beets as often or more than the purple. I agree the greens are delicious but I rarely find them in as good of shape at the store as the ones in your pic. Enjoy!
I got some bad news this morning. My swiss chard was eaten by deer and my perpetual spinach which is in the same family is 75% gone also. I have a 6 foot fence that did not deter her. The chard, beet greens and the perpetual spinach are great sauteed and I add them to lentil soup.
