1 pound baby yellow or red beets, trimmed, scrubbed

I'm not sure why, but my beets turned out a bit too crunchy. I think I'll cook them for a little longer next time.

I'm not a big fan of tarragon, so I used basil instead. It turned out great!

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover beets. I had some roasted beets in the fridge and they worked perfectly.

I found the recipe to be a bit bland. I added some additional spices and herbs to give it more flavor.

The marinated beets were a bit too sweet for my taste, but the pistachios and tarragon added a nice touch of flavor and texture.
