Pickled Beets

9 med. size beets, washed with tops removed. Cook until tender (about 1.5-2 hours.)

Cool slightly, peel and then slice, add to below liquid mixture after it has boiled.

Liquid Mixture

2 C water

2 C cider vinegar

2C brown sugar

1t allspice

2 cinnamon sticks

Combine above ingredients in a large pot and bring to a boil.

1 onion, sliced

Cook in about 1.5 cups of water until transparent.

Add cooked, sliced beets and cooked onion to liquid mixture and bring to boil for a few more minutes.

I use about 4-6 pint canning jars. Boil jar tops for a few minutes. Put beets and onions in jars and cover with liquid mixture. (Discard cinnamon sticks) Cover and refrigerate. Will last 3 – 4 weeks.
