Guest guest Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 I love raw beets in any of the smoothies in the VitaMix. I also love to steam the leaves of the stems of the raw beets with a bit of butter. Immm good! But now I have the raw red stems. Are they edible and if so how are they prepared. Can I put the stems of the beets into the VitaMix also or would anyone suggest steaming them also with the leaves? Roslyn Zencker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Hello Roslyn,I've used the beet stems in smoothies - they taste milder than the beet - I like them. They add a red color and if you use the leaves of the beet tops red + green = brown :-) Blessings,Lea Ann SavageSatellite Beach, FL(321) 773-7088 (home)(321-961-9219 (cell)www.BlenderLady.com(AKA the Vitamix Lady :-)<))>< On Jul 3, 2012, at 8:11 PM, Roslyn wrote: I love raw beets in any of the smoothies in the VitaMix.
