Get creative and celebrate your Valentine with dishes and treats made from beets.
Get creative this Valentine's Day and celebrate your loved one with treats made from beets. From beet ravioli to a beet chocolate cake, the root veggie can (and will) dye everything purple and red. You can even use the scraps for arts and crafts with the kids.
Amelia Tarpey is the Program and Publicity Manger for GrowNYC Greenmarkets. She says right now at Greenmarkets, beets are going for about $3 to $5 per pound.
