I Want to Be Healthier

I'm trying to add beets to my diet. It doesn't really fit in with other foods I enjoy. How do I cook this thing?
Anyway, I bought the juice as well. It tastes like thise Boston Baked Beans candies. The candied peanuts. Weird. I don't dislike it, but there really is no way that flavor would fit in with anything else I like to eat.

Beets are excellent. Try roasted beets on a spinach salad with goat cheese or a blue cheese and roasted pecans. Try a bed of arugula with sliced pear, cantaloupe, and steamed or roasted beets, and some mozzarella balls. Toss the beets in pesto. Sprinkle the dish with balsamic vinegar. Roasted beets also pair well with lamb or a grass fed beef cut. The flavor will throw off fish or chicken. To juice: beet, Apple (optional), Ginger is a great pickmeup. Goes well with carrot juice also. Just be prepared for the red poop and tinged pee.
