    Nordic/Scandinavian Beet Recipes

    Beets are a fall and winter staple in Scandinavia as they store well during the harsh winters when there is no fresh produce to be had.  Fortunately they are nutritious, delicious and lovely to look at with their jewel-like hues.

    Explore Nordic-inspired recipes for beets such as Spicy Pickled Beets or Roasted Beet Hummus.  There is so much versatility and beauty in this often overlooked vegetable!
