This is a delicious way to use beets. I'm not a big fan of beets but this is tasty. I followed the recipe on quantity and it made 3 pint jars. I did sub a yellow pepper for green and regular rasins for the golden. It's what I had on hand. I'm not sure what kind of meat to serve it with. Maybe pork or turkey? If anyone has ideas let me know.
