On a recent trip to the library, one librarian shared that she had been buying (Mediterranean) pickled turnips at a market, and wondered what the "pink" color was from (and if it was healthy). She raved about the taste, so I came home and made some.
By the way, I was right on my first guess - the pink is from beets.
I sliced my turnips in stick form. The beet and hot pepper are at the bottom of the jar. By the way, I will be making these again using the garlic vs. the chili pepper next. I found a few ways to make them now.

Perfecting Sorghum Baked Beans ~ Pickling Sugar Snap Peas
Now that the kids have associated summer gatherings and cookouts with baked beans, I think I have come up with a nice homemade version. In fact, I think I'll take pre-soaked beans to our next camp-out. I would love to try cooking these over the campfire all day long.
(They were steaming in the photo. I had just taken some out of the crock pot)
