This post is brought to you in partnership with Aunt Nellie’s. Opinions are my own.

Just beet it! You knew that was going to happen. C’mon. This week is Aunt Nellie’s Beet Week to celebrate the versatility of beets by creating new and innovative ways to enjoy beets all day long. Aunt Nellie’s beets are so incredibly versatile. They work in most recipes, or straight from the jar or single- serve cup (because tasty), which makes them a fit for most any meal category from breakfast to dessert.

Yes even dessert! Hence beet panna cotta with honey.

While I love roasted beets sometimes I just don’t have time to roast them. Aunt Nellie’s saves you time because all of the peeling, cooking, pickling is done for you, without sacrificing flavor. Did you know that Ruby-red beets are antioxidant-rich, and provide vitamins (like Vitamin A, C and Folate), minerals (like Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Phosphorus, and Potassium) and fiber to the diet? They sure are.

Want to try them yourself? Aunt Nellies beets can be found in supermarkets across America. Look for them in the jarred and canned vegetable aisle.

Panna cotta is my go to dessert. It’s simple. It takes less than 15 minutes to make and the rest is chill time in the refrigerator. It can also accommodate ALL kinds of different flavors. Like beets!

I simply drained and pureed my Aunt Nellie’s beets and added it to my panna cotta base. It’s that simple. It pairs beautifully with the honey and optional walnuts. It’s the perfect unexpected dessert.
