Sweet and earthy flavors are made tender and buttery by cooking them in the pressure cooker. What might take over an hour to cook takes half the time by using the Ninja Foodi.

Chef's Notes



Beets are notorious for staining things. They may stain your skin as you remove the peel, so you may opt to wear gloves for this part. Normally, the staining doesn't last long for me, so I don't bother wearing gloves. But be aware they may stain hardwood cutting boards, so it's best to use plastic or line the board with parchment paper.
