Mandarin Glazed Beets

Ginny, I'm giving your recipe 4 **** because I really enjoyed the flavor. As I was cooking the sauce, I tasted some and thought, "MMMMM, that's good!!!!" I loved having the mandarin sections in there too! I even halved the recipe because I only had one can of beets (but I did stick with one whole can of oranges.)Unfortunately, I couldn't change the opinion of my family on beets, but let it be known, that I thought there were yummy and I'd make them again! :)

Ginny - these are wonderful! I made them especially for my mom (she LOVES beets) for our Thanksgiving dinner. The orange sections are a nice touch and the lemon juice adds just enough zing. I served them cold, but they were just as good when I "taste-tested" them while they were still warm. I thawed & used a package of beets I had frozen from our garden this summer, & also added some freshly grated orange zest, which added to the flavor as well as the presentation. Excellent recipe - thanks for posting, & I will make these again. -M :-)

Quick and easy. Delicious and wonderful! Great for Thanksgiving feast!

This was really good and easy. I baked fresh beets to use rather then canned. I also used fresh lemon juice. The sweetness of the baked beets and the oranges along with the lemon juice is a wonderful combination of sweet and sour. Plus it is very pretty. A great addition to any meal.
