My Beautiful Beets Shopping (your Veggie Shopping) [Eng. / Esp.]
ENGLISH.
Greetings beautiful and dear vegan community, this time I am not leaving you a recipe, today I join the contest of our dear friend 
Since I was a little girl I have always eaten Beetroot, I remember how Mom used to make us that delicious salad with cooked Beetroot and potatoes, it was the way she used to prepare it the most, or also in a powerful juice that here we call three in one made with beet, orange and carrot.
But as I grew up I began to realize that with beets you can make many recipes, here at home it is a habit to eat it at least twice a week and the way we consume it most is raw in salads, besides that I love to buy the one that comes with its leaves, of course as long as they look fresh, before I was one of those people who removed the leaves and threw them away but since I learned that they also provide us with nutrients, I began to consume them in salads.
I find it not only a very nutritious and delicious vegetable, but also very noble as you can use almost everything from it, at home we all like it even my lovely little dog 馃槉.
Buying my beets at the community market.
This time I did my shopping in this market, there are times when I like to come to this place especially when I want to buy vegetables and fruits, the best days are Saturday mornings, because everything is fresher, plus the prices are usually cheaper.
I went through several places until I got to a very small stand where there was a variety of vegetables and fruits, and also the lady who served me had very fresh Beetroot, I could hardly see it because she had it in a place where at first sight it is not visible, the Beetroot came with its leaves quite fresh, so I did not hesitate to buy them.
Its cost was 1 kilo for 40 Bs which in dollars would be 1.1 $, I thought it was a very good price, I owe you the photo with the invoice of my purchase but here they don't give anything like that, you just pay and that's it.
How do I keep my beets.
Once the purchase is done, I get home and put everything in the cupboard and in the fridge.
To these beets that come with their leaves, the first thing I do is cut it, separating the beets from the leaves, then I put them to wash very well, dry them and put them in a plastic bag, trying to keep the bag closed and put them in the fridge.
But I like to use the leaves immediately, so I wash them very well, then I put them in enough filtered Water and White Vinegar to disinfect, once this process is done I include it in my nutritious salad, and that's it.
Well my dear friends up to here my participation in this great initiative, as always I enjoy it very much, I hope and it is to your liking, and if someone wants to give me a tic to better preserve this delicious vegetable, I will always be willing to listen, well better said to read. 馃榿
Thank you for reading, for your support, God bless you richly.馃馃檹鉂わ笍

Saludos hermosa y querida comunidad vegana, esta vez no paso a dejarles una receta, hoy me uno al concurso de nuestra querida amiga
Desde ni帽a siempre he comido Remolacha, recuerdo como Mam谩 nos hac铆a esa deliciosa ensalada con Remolacha cocida y papas, era la manera en que m谩s nos la preparaba, o tambi茅n en un poderoso jugo que aqu铆 llamamos tres en uno realizado con remolacha, naranja y zanahoria.
Pero a medida que fui creciendo empec茅 a darme cuenta que con la Remolacha se pueden elaborar muchas recetas, ac谩 en casa es un h谩bito comerla al menos dos veces por semana y la manera en que m谩s la consumimos es cruda en ensaladas, adem谩s de eso me encanta comprar la que viene con sus hojas, por supuesto siempre y cuando se vean frescas, antes era de esas personas que le quitaba las hojas y las botaba pero desde que supe que tambi茅n nos aportan nutrientes, empec茅 a consumirlas en ensaladas.
Me parece no solo un vegetal muy nutritivo y delicioso, sino tambi茅n muy noble ya que se puede usar casi todo de ella, en casa nos gusta a todos incluso a mi adorable perrito 馃槉
Comprando mis remolachas en el mercado comunitario.
Esta vez hice mis compras en este mercado, hay momentos en que me gusta venir a este lugar sobre todo cuando quiero comprar vegetales y frutas, los mejores d铆as son los S谩bados en la ma帽ana, porque todo est谩 m谩s fresco, adem谩s que los precios suelen ser m谩s econ贸micos.
Recorr铆 varios lugares hasta que llegue a un muy peque帽o puesto en donde hab铆a variedad en vegetales y frutas, y tambi茅n la se帽ora que me atendi贸 ten铆a la Remolacha muy fresca, casi ni la ve铆a porque la ten铆a en un lugar en donde a primera vista no se ve, la Remolacha ven铆a con sus hojas bastante frescas, as铆 que no dude en comprarlas.
Su costo fue de 1 kilo por 40 Bs que en d贸lares serian 1,1 $, me pareci贸 un muy buen precio, les debo la foto con la factura de mi compra pero aqu铆 no dan nada de eso, solo uno paga y listo.
Como conservo mis remolachas.
Ya hecha la compra, llego a casa ordenando todo en la alacena y en la nevera.
A estas remolachas que vienen con sus hojas, lo primero que hago es cortarla, separando la Remolacha de las hojas, luego las meto a lavar muy bien, las seco y las meto en una bolsa pl谩stica, tratando que la bolsa quede cerrada y las meto en la nevera.
Pero las hojas me gusta usarlas inmediatamente, as铆 que las lavo muy bien, luego las meto en suficiente Agua filtrada y Vinagre Blanco para desinfectar, una vez hecho este proceso la incluyo en mi nutritiva ensalada, y listo.
Bueno mis queridos amigos hasta aqu铆 mi participaci贸n en esta gran iniciativa, como siempre la disfrute mucho, espero y sea de su agrado, y si alguien me quiere dar un tic para conservar mejor este delicioso vegetal, siempre estar茅 dispuesta a escuchar, bueno mejor dicho a leer. 馃榿
Gracias por leer, por tu apoyo, Dios les bendiga ricamente.馃馃檹鉂わ笍
