Submitted by Boomette

"I made this recipe today with orange beets. It's very good with the rosemary. You can substitute thyme for the rosemary. Proceed as directed."

I made this for Friday night and loved it. There was some leftovers, so I let it stand until it reached room temperature, and found it was just as good! I love beets, so I couldn't go wrong with this recipe!
