Beets Gratin

There's been a request for a great beets recipe. I promise you, even if you've been put off beets by eating store-bought pickled stuff, you'll love the taste of fresh beets in this recipe. Sorry there's no pictures; we always eat it all before thinking of taking pictures.

Beets
Gratin
4 cups sliced beets, sliced 1/2 inch thick
1 cup thinly-sliced onions
2 cups seasoned bread crumbs
3 Tbsp butter
Olive oil, for drizzling
Parmesan cheese, for sprinkling
creole or cajun seasoning, for sprinkling
salt and pepper

Preheat oven to 375. In a greased 9x13, layer half of the beets beets and onions, and half of the bread crumbs, dotting each with butter, and seasoning each layer with olive oil, parmesan cheese, creole/cajun seasoning, and salt and pepper. Repeat for second layer. Bake, covered, 45 minutes. Uncover and continue baking 15 minutes more, or until top is browned and bubbly.

Revina is married!




By now I think everyone knows Revina got married on April 17. I finally looked at the pictures today and I thought people might like to see them. She is now Mrs. Fred Talker and she has a beautiful stepdaughter. The Talker family catered the dinner at the wedding. They are a great family. Fred took us to look at the nearby petroglyphs one hour before the wedding! Things are a little more laid back down there than up here. Revina is now in San Antonio for Officer's training but she will be home in about a week.

Sorry this looks so weird. I still don't know much about blogs.
