Fantastic beets Sydney! We had along with our corned beef dinner and everyone loved them. DH and DD's want them again soon, so they will be made again!

Outstanding! We loved these! I doubled the recipe and used a large can of the pineapple tidbits, and it turned out excellent! Hubby said "You can definitely make these again!" Thank you so much for posting this recipe!

Great flavor, the sauce is very thick, so I might cut the cornstarch down a teaspoon almost similar to a jelly consistancy, will make again but with some adjustments, thanks for sharing Syd!

The combination of beets (which I love) and pineapple (which I love also) goes together pretty well. I assumed the pineapple was supposed to be undrained, so in making the sauce I included the juice from the tidbits can. By the way I used leftover cooked beets, which originally came from the organic food farm, in place of the canned.
