"beets"

The "beets" have been harvested.

I say "beets" because there really weren't ruby colored orbs like I had envisioned.

In fact, there were more greens than anything.

I peeled what "beets" I had...this was the biggest.

Still, doesn't it look like a jewel?!

5 in all.

We ate this raw, they were quite tender.

For the greens, I wilted them in a non-stick pan and then chopped them up.

We ate these with some mayonnaise...yum!

I've planted more beets, hoping for orbs this time.

  7. I felt silly using a peeler to peel these Rowena, but I couldn't see myself throwing them out.

    Take care.
