If you’re Polish, you were raised on beets! Whether it’s red beet soup, cold beet slaw or shredded beets served warm as a popular side dish. This time, I decided to put a little twist on it and add pineapple and pecans 🙂
What came out was a sweet dish that can be eaten on its own or served with a variety of meats or fish. It tastes great straight out of the oven or fridge!
