Equipment

  • Mason Jar and Airtight Lids

Ingredients
  

  • 2 14-ounce cans beets drained, or 3 cups cooked beets, sliced
  • ½ onion sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ⅔ cup white vinegar
  • ⅔ cup water
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil optional, for drizzling

Instructions
 

  • In a quart-sized mason jar (or other quart-sized airtight container), add the cooked sliced beets.
  • To the beets, add the onion, garlic, sugar, black pepper, vinegar, and water. Add more water to cover the beets if necessary.
  • Seal the mason jar with a lid (or put a lid on your airtight container). Refrigerate for up to 2 hours before enjoying.
  • Optional - but I like to drizzle my beets with a little olive oil just before serving. I don't add the olive oil to the jar, as it can harden in the refrigerator, but it adds a nice texture to the beets right before you eat!
  • Beets will last for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
