SWEET AND SOUR BEETS

These are pretty much like Harvard beets, you can use canned beets slices (use one can) for this, or fresh cooked beets, I prefer the fresh cooked! also adjust the sugar to taste. You can double this recipe if desired, don't omit the orange zest, it really adds a kick to the beets!

Sweet-and-Sour Beet Salad image

This salad was served daily for years at the famous Griswold's Inn in Claremont, California before it closed in the late 1990s. My family thinks it's as good on the holiday table as it is at summer picnics. If you're cooking for two, don't shy away from this recipe-the beets keep well and actually taste better the second and third days!
