BEETROOT

I love eating beetroot because of its health benefits

Beetroot is a root vegetable also known as Beta vulgaris rubra or red beetroot. Vibrant red or gold beetroot has been planted everywhere from the ancient Mediterranean to George Washington's Mount Vernon. In modern times, hybrid species of beets even have candy-cane stripes of red and white. All colors of beetroot have the same rich, earthy taste and liven the plate with their rainbow hues.
