Source of recipe: I improvised this recipe based on a recent trip to Spain, during which I realized that anything could be made extra delicious by merely adding olive oil and vinegar.

have something else to add about this recipe. i left off the olive oil. i added dill. it is pretty fab!! people at work who hate beets tried these and love them.
HAVE TRIED THIS SEVERAL TIMES. THEY ARE PRETTY PHENOMENAL. GREAT COLD, ESPECIALLY WITH SOME VEGAN PASTA. THANKS.
I made these with dinner last night. Even my 3 yo who tells me every week that she doesn't like beets gobbled these up!! Thanks!! :)
Thanks for the recipe. I only substituted vinegar with lemon juice and cut beets into small cubes. It was very tasty!!! ;)b
This is a great recipe! It was my first time cooking with beets and it came out wonderfully! The only thing I did differently was that I sauteed the onions in olive oil while the beets were boiling. My beet loving roommate was very pleased!
WILL HAVE TO TRY THIS. LOVE BEETS IN ALMOST ANY FORM
Mmmm Delicious! Im usually super lazy and this took minimal effort and I didnt have to run to the store which is a big plus for me :)
