Resolution: Boom boom boom boom.

If you know me then you know that I like dem beets. This wasn't always the case. Up until about three years ago, I had never even tried one. I was going through a phase where I was really into steamed vegetables when I discovered this pee dying root. Not only did I become a fan of the taste; I also became a fan of the additional novel side effects.

Though I am a fan I've only tried beets either steamed or canned. Part of me wants to become a beet specialist and in order to do so, I figure I should know more than two dishes if you consider opening a can and dumping the contents onto a salad “a dish.”

My new plan to become a beet specialist is to buy the Beet Greats cookbook and prepare every dish inside. I'm really looking forward to the beet burger.

As always, I'll keep you posted.

Result #151: I Bought The Beet Cookbook… But… I’ve Yet To Bake Them Beets… To Then Eat Dem… :(

Update #1: The Conclusion…

Date: 5-31-2015

I've never been good at cooking recipes from a cookbook. My sense of taste is pretty weak so I've never had any of the required herbs and spices. It would be one thing if I had a well-stocked pantry and all I needed to buy was a couple of beets and lettuce. No, I have to buy everything on the list, which can get pretty pricy, and if you've read any of my posts then you know I don't have that much to spend.

Now that I'm living at home there are more ingredients in the cupboard but no one in the house is interested in beets, so I haven't been all that motivated to make a beet-based meal.

Once again as soon as I'm making more money than just enough to scrape by I will start to treat myself to some beets, knowing that the non-beet ingredients won't go to waste.

As always, I will keep you posted.
