I found a couple cases of people who died from eating carrot greens, but it was due to an allergy. According to the Carrot Museum, the greens are an allergen (like peanuts) but not actually toxic. But I do just use them in small amounts anyway! Alejandra, I will have to try the beet gnocchi, that sounds really good to me!

My boyfriend would love them as he's Russian and a huge beet fan and a huge latke fan. It's the perfect combo of both! You know what else you can try with your husband? Beet gnocchi. I have a really easy recipe on my site (just check the recipe index) and the beet flavor totally disappears so all you get is a nice pasta but it uses four whole beets! I also made beet ice cream, but that might be too much for him... Those look fabulous! My boyfriend would love them as he’s Russian and a huge beet fan and a huge latke fan.

I looked it up after we got carrots from our CSA with the greens attached. I think small amounts are fine, but don't have too many smoothies. Be careful – Carrot greens are toxic.

I have yet to try non-pickled beets in a recipe. This looks like a great one to start with. Thanks for sharing this! I recently discovered that I love pickled beets.

I think I would qualify to be in that group. hehe... Don't eat it it too often, but I'd like to give these a try. ;-D I think that’s a great way to try to get someone to eat beets.
