Great Grandma Natalie’s Farm Beets

The note on her recipe card says “If we have bacon, remember to add it!”

2 Tbsp. butter

2 Tbsp. flour

1 Tbsp. sugar

½ tsp. salt

¼ cup vinegar

¼ cup cream (or ½ & ½)

3 cups grated, cooked beets

1 Tbsp. paper thin, tiny onion slices, or scraped onion juice (optional)

2 pieces bacon, crisp cooked and crumbled (optional)

Melt butter in a saucepan. Whisk together flour, sugar, salt, vinegar and cream, and add to butter. Fold in beets (+onion and bacon if using) and simmer gently for about 5-10 minutes until hot.

Serve warm.
