These pickled beets are a great way to use up leftover beets. I always have a few beets left over after I make borscht, and these pickled beets are the perfect way to use them up.

I'm not a huge fan of beets, but these pickled beets are amazing! The pickling process really takes away the earthy flavor that I don't like. I'll definitely be making these again.

I followed the recipe but my beets turned out too soft. I think I may have cooked them for too long. Next time I'll try cooking them for a shorter amount of time.
