These were pretty good. I used fresh boiled beets which I sliced. I used a tetra-pack orange juice and found the orange flavour was not quite intense enough for the beet flavour so I added a big glop of frozen orange juice concentrate, probably about a tbsp although I didn't measure. I would certainly make this dish again. I forgot to add the butter but I don't think I missed it and since we have some fat monitored diets in the family, it was probably a good thing to leave it out.
