Beets! They're What's for Dinner . . .

The beets called out to me at our farmers' market yesterday. I'd never cooked with them before (and had only eaten them maybe half a dozen times), but I figured I'd follow my inspiration and find something cool to do with them.

Here's the result:

Beets and Caramelized Onions with Feta
I made one obvious (and critical) adjustment to the recipe: I roasted fresh beets instead of using canned (the thought of which kind of makes me queasy). Zach was kind enough to make the rest of the meal—lamb and couscous.

The dish turned out fine—not something I'd rush to make again, but something I'm happy to have tried. And the deep red color was definitely fitting for the day.
