Don’t turn your nose up at these until you’ve tried them!! Even if you’re not really a beetroot lover, these are so sweet and tasty you won’t even notice they are beetroot (well apart from the pink after-effects!!). They are so quick and easy to make and you can serve them in a variety of ways. My favourite is with my ‘mazing Mango Salsa in a lettuce wrap but you could substitute any salsa or salad. You could also serve in a gluten free bun or with a poached egg on top.
