This is definitely the summer of vegetables for me. When we first did our grocery shopping at the beginning of the month I had so many veggies to choose from I decided just to throw a bunch of them all together in one dish. Turned out to be an excellent side dish! This recipe is really adaptable, as you can add or omit whatever are your favorites or those that you don’t like (beets aren’t generally very popular). I paired with with mashed caluflower (recipe coming soon), bbd’d chicken, a salad and some rolls. Mmmm… what a wonderful meal! Think you’ll like it? I do!

Recipe Notes
[My 2 Cents]
Of course you could mix all the veggies in one bowl. I chose not to because beets immediately dye everything they touch. So to avoid all of my veggies being purple, I mixed them separately and then just sprinkled the beets throughout.

Thanks! I’ve been more adventurous (not that this is adventurous) with vegetables this summer than I usually am and it’s proving to be completely worth it!
I love that you used beets! I didn’t grow any in my garden, but I do love beets!

I’m so happy to find a fellow beet lover – most people I talk to do not like them!!
