Microwave Beets ♥

What a huge time-saver. If you love beets, you'll want to learn how easy it is to
cook beets in the microwave!

Two lessons for the 'price' of one today.

1. Yes, the wily world of vegetables includes creamy white beets in addition to beet-red, pale pink and golden beets.
   
2. Yes, beets can be cooked in the microwave!

#1 is a mere novelty but #2 is decidedly useful since cooking beets in the oven takes 60 - 90 minutes.

But in the microwave, cooking beets takes just 20 - 30 minutes, completely unattended except for turning. What a time-saver, what an energy-saver. (Does that, um, make these white beets, ummmm, 'green'?)

These beets were delicious, sliced hot from the microwave and topped with a pinprick of butter and a few fresh chives. I may never roast beets in the oven again.

And the technique is especially convenient when cooking for one or two. Need to cook just one beet or two beets? No problem.
