Oh, I love beets--this looks good! Have you ever tried them oven roasted? Also fantastic, and usually surprises "beet haters."

Harvard beets are a common family dish in my part of the country--with an interesting twist. Hard boil about a half-dozen eggs. Peel them after they cool. then add the peeled eggs to the beet mixture in a non-reactive container that allows the beet liquid to completely cover the eggs (I use a glass quart jar). Allow to marinate in the refrigerator for a few days. The eggs turn pink and yummy, and make dynamite deviled eggs.
