This dish is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids loved the sweet and tangy flavor of the beets.

I'm not a big fan of sour cream, so I used plain yogurt instead. It was still very good.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my beets turned out a little tough. Maybe I should have cooked them for a little longer.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover beets. I had some roasted beets in the fridge, and this was the perfect way to use them up.

I've never been a big fan of beets, but this recipe changed my mind. The braising process really brings out the natural sweetness of the beets.
