Root Veggies! Don’t Ya Just ♥ Them? ;-)
I SURE DO!!! 😉
And here are some of my fav ways to prepare and serve these oh,so yummy “gems” from the fall harvest!
Sam’s Famous Carrot Cake with My (NOT Too Sweet) Cream Cheese Icing
My favorite cake, no contest!
Just add dark rye bread and you’re good to go! 😉
One of my fav slow cooker recipes from the Groovy Green Kitchen I.
I make this one a lot. Quick to prepare, hearty and delicious.
And, it includes: onions, garlic and potatoes: all fav rooties! 🙂
Kasha and Beet Salad with Celery and Feta

On the Menu: Kasha and Beet Salad with Celery and Feta (with a twist) ;-)
I made this oh, so yummy beet salad again yesterday (one of my all-time favs) 😉 this time with a slight variation.
I didn’t have any kasha, so I used black rice instead (ancient, organic variety). I’m a big fan of this type of rice, so good! 😉
I also used lots of finely chopped fresh dill instead of parsley. It turned out great!
If you love beets, this is a recipe you won’t want to miss.
Perfect for adding to lunches, or as a side or vegetarian main dish. Would also be great for a potluck or buffet dinner.
Check out the recipe and review of the cookbook by Judith Finlayson, that this wonderful recipe is from.
What’s on the menu at your place?
Happy Cooking!
