I used fresh beets instead of canned, just boiled them for about 10 minutes before continuing with recipe. Loved it!! - 14 Apr 2010 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
This recipe was perfect! My neighbor gave me some beets, I baked them at 325 for an hour, let them cool a bit and then used this recipe. I wanted a recipe that didn't need pickling spices, because I didn't have that on hand....this was exactly like grandmas! Thanks for the recipe! - 16 Nov 2009 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
