Finally! A Use for Beets!
Okay,so this is something a little different. It just worked out so well, I had to share. These are my Easter eggs. This year, instead of the store bought egg dye, I opted for food-based dyes. I made red, yellow, and blue; and then mixed to get orange, green, and purple. And all I used was beets (red -seen here --> ), turmeric (yellow), and blueberries (blue). I ran the foods through a food processor, added a couple cups of water, and some vinegar, and boiled. Here are my results... I will definitely be doing this again next year!
