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.
