Vegetarian Quiche with Colourful Beet

Beetroot is super healthy – but not for everyone. Try yellow or ringed beets such as “Burpees Golden” or “Tonda di Chioggia.” Even the names are a poem and the turnips are tender and slightly sweeter than their well-known sister. We combine yellow, red and striped varieties in a quiche. This dish looks like a picture book and tastes wonderful.
