People tend to be afraid of cooking with beets. First off you need to roast them which takes time and they stain everything. There is no need to worry anymore! They now sell precooked beats that you can just pop into whatever you are making. This has made cooking with beets so much easier. You can dip pita chips, veggies, or really anything into it for a yummy snack. Click here for an amazing Crudités Bar with this dip. If you love the flavor (and color) of beets but don’t make them at home due to the hassle, I encourage you to try the pre-cooked beets for yourself!
