  1. I wanted a different side dish in addition to a green vegetable. I had a can of beets (boring). I searched "beets" and came up with this recipe. It was absolutely great. It was like eating candy. BTW, I used Splenda in place of real sugar. So we didn't feel so guilty.
     
  2. These quick and easy beets were surprisingly good. My family loves beets, but we have never had them prepared this way. The tangy sweet/ sour orange sauce compliments the flavor of the beets. I used 2 (15 oz.) cans of beets. Thank you for sharing this wonderful, new way of preparing beets. *Made for Fall PAC 2008*

<p><br />A chef's hat is only one of the many hats I wear. <br />Being a mother of 5 of my own children, step-mother <br />to 2, and step-step mother to 8 (I divorced the man, <br />not the kids..lol) and a grandmother to 4, I don't have a <br />lot of time for cooking. I love quick and easy recipes that <br />take little time to fix, but taste like they took forever. <br /><img src="http://i410.photobucket.com/albums/pp188/zaar_album/2.jpg?t=1228246327" border="0" alt="1" width="254" height="178" /> <br />The kitchen has always been a place of happy memories. <br />I have baked cookies with my children since they were toddlers. My grandson asks me as soon as he walks in the door, <br />"Can we make salsa, Mamaw?". <br /><img src="http://i410.photobucket.com/albums/pp188/zaar_album/3.jpg?t=1228246384" border="0" alt="1" width="225" height="98" /> <br />I am here to share the recipes I have gotten from my mother, <br />friends and a few of my own creations. I love just browsing <br />through some of the fantastic recipes I have found on these pages. My family is really enjoying the new items added to our usual menu. <br /><img src="http://i410.photobucket.com/albums/pp188/zaar_album/1.jpg?t=1228246415" border="0" alt="1" width="180" height="126" /> <br />I hope you will enjoy what I have to share as much as I have <br />enjoyed what has been shared with me. <br /><img src="http://i410.photobucket.com/albums/pp188/zaar_album/wws.jpg?t=1228246442" border="0" alt="1" width="200" height="200" /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /> <br /> <br /></p>
