Directions:
1. Leaving root and 1 inch of stem on beets, trim tops and scrub with a brush. 2. Place in a large saucepan, cover with water. 3. Bring to boil, cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 1 hour or until tender. 4. Drain and rinse with cold water. 5. Drain, cool. 6. Trim off beet roots, rub off skins. 7. Cut beets into cubes to measure 3 1/2 cups. 8. Melt butter in a large nonstick frypan over medium heat. 9. Add beets, rind, and next 4 ingredients, (rind through pepper.)
