    Honestly, too many ingredients! Can I just toss my beets with some ranch or somethin? Keeping it simple.

      I get it! Sometimes simple is the best. Ranch sounds good too! But don’t knock the beets, they’re really tasty roasted.

      Why would you ruin beets with ranch? They taste amazing with all that stuff! Just try it.

    I tried this but I’m not a fan of beets. They looked pretty but tasted weird to me. Can’t understand the hype.
