Good Morning to all the Beeties

BD .. nice to see you about whenever you grab a little time

Morning fellow lovers and Zaph...

Well I am eating a pack of beetroot a day at the moment.. reminds me I need to stock up again !!!...

well done PG

are you experimemting with the bodily fluid tests

Hi MrsH, I'm still waiting for that stupid green 'blu loo' thing to disappear !!! then the experiment will be on... thou my friend ate beetroot at the weekend and also had a hangover, went for a wee and thought she was dying.. silly mare !!!!

Gah!!!! *hawk camel spit*


Z.

I bulk buy organic beetroot from a health food shop (named "Red Velvet") and last time I bought about 15 packets (each pack contains 4 beetroot). I have one beetroot a day – a highlight of my lunch.

Bad news: I came to open one of my 15 packets last night and the date had expired (Feb 09). I have WASTED the beet and feel shame

You could say I was a "red as a beetroot" with shame...

Good news: I bought another 5 packs today! They will last nearly 5 weeks - expiry date 1 July 09

Go me!

How can you every have a Best Before Date on Beetroot?

Awful Since Date maybe


Z.

Nothing beats fresh Beetroot.



Hi Zaphod, I see you are still resisting the goodness of Beetroot.

A baseball bat can beat Beetroot.... into a satisfying pulp as it happens


Z.

Here take this Beetroot pill Zaph....you are getting a bit edgy wiv the baseball bat over the beloved beet......

It's getting like the Addams Family round here....



Z.

Put em up, Put em up.....

Can someone confirm that this is Zaphod indulging in his secret pash for the larger, riper, Rubenesque full-bodied beet?

Hi Beeties

Hi Syd

hope you dont mind but I have "borrowed this boxing and also the red pill piccies

keep the good work up ..

Good morning lovers...

I did have a smile at that pic... I see what you mean he didn't protest about holding the huge beet !!!

Sorry I have been busy for the past couple of days but here is another recipe for Zaph or any one else to try. Enjoy and keep eating the beetroot its good for you.

Caramelised Beetroot and Apple

500 g bundle beetroot, cooked as per pack instructions, cut into wedges
3 tbsp olive oil
3 Granny Smith apples peeled, cored and cut into wedges
25 g unsalted butter
2 tbsp soft brown sugar
20 g pack fresh parsley, finely chopped



1. Preheat the oven to 190°C, 375°F, Gas Mark 5.

2. Place the beetroot in a roasting tin along with the olive oil, mix to incorporate and cook for 20 minutes.

3. After 20 minutes remove the roasting tin from the oven add the apple and dot with the butter and sprinkle over the sugar. Return back to the oven and cook for a further 20 minutes.

4. Remove and gently stir in the chopped parsley then serve immediately alongside roasted meats or sausages.

No sense of scale you people... that is a very small man with a terrible taste in shirts holding up a deformed but nearly normal sized beetroot.. you can't fool me that easily !!



Z.

Ohhhh, this thread is soooo funny!! Great pics and comments.... keep em coming...

<<<< for Mr Z... x

Well I have started Fat Club again and beetroot has helped me lose two and a half pound this week.. go beet.. go beet..
