They tasted really good and I hate beets. My husband almost threw up though but he detests beets... I made him try it to set a good example for our 3 year old. Our 1 year old LOVES them!!! The longer you simmer them the better they taste. I made them an hour ahead of time and just warmed them up and they were better than when I first cooked them. Nice recipe!

If you MUST eat beets this is the way to go. It seems I went temporarily insane while at the grocery and picked up a can of beets. But after desperately searching for a recipe that would make beets NOT taste like beets I found it! I went a little heavy on the apple.:) hehe
I loved this recipe. The color of the dish is so beautiful to compliment a holiday meal. The sauce thickens up nicely and the flavors are wonderful.
I enjoy beets but have never cooked them myself. I made this recipe and it turned out delicious. I threw in a handful of chopped walnuts and pecans at the end just to add some crunch and it tastes pretty great. I will definitely make this again.
This was a fun recipe to start with I challenged myself to run w/ fresh beets but kept the concept beyond that all Michele's - very innovative and fresh - I'd have never experimented w/ Beets and Apples had it not been for this post - Thanks Michele - you created a challenge for me w/o knowing it!!!

substituted fresh peach for apple & slow-cooked with all the juice from the can for 30 mins. excellent. could double the fruit content too to further disguise the beets but was yummy 1 can to 1 fresh fruit
This is great! The beets I used were only in water and salt so I added some extra cornstarch and sugar. I also added a couple of dashes of red wine garlic vinegar. It was great!
I make this quite often - an easy delicious and colorful side dish.
