    I'm too lazy to cook so I used pickeled beets. The idea of apple vinegar made me think to add apple slices. Carrots too and just a dollop of sourcream. Left out the sugar. - 5/9/09

    It was good and most of the family liked it. It had a bit too much of a vinegar taste while warm, but mellowed out in the fridge. We liked it both hot and cold. - 9/17/08

    This is a smash hit at my house! It is a nice savoury hot vegetable the night I make it. It is a nice salad the next day and on Friday the remainders make a delightful tangy dressing on salad greens. Tinkered with the ingredients and loved every variation we tried!!!6 STARS - 12/6/07

    The only thing I would change is: I would use a little water in place of a bit of the vinegar. My dh also loved it. :) - 10/14/07
