  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • Add the beets and heat through. Add the butter, stir to melt it and serve immediately.

Notes

  • I used already cooked Love Beets I bought in bulk at Costco, you can also roast the beets that day or the night before and refrigerate them until you are ready.
  • Do not over cook the sauce! It is gets thick and gloppy quickly.
