Here is a recipe that I came up with since there are so few side dishes that feature beets. BORSCHT BEETS 2 cups cooked beets(fresh are best but canned will do) 1 cup sour cream 1 medium onion 1/4 cup fresh dill(dried will NOT do) salt and pepper to taste While the sliced or cubed beets are being boiled slice the onion and saute in some butter or butter/oil combination. Drain beets and add to sauteed onions. Add sour cream and dill and cook on medium heat for 2-3 minutes ---then season with salt and pepper. Serves 4 as a side dish-great with any time of meat side dish or with vegetarian meals. This dish actually has the taste of borscht-the famous soup of Slavic countries....and can be prepared in 20 minutes.
