Quick Pickled Beets

Beautiful served in a glass bowl at the dinner table, also make a very nice snack with fresh bread (like rye) and a glass of beer. Serve hot, quartered beets for dinner garnished with 2 tablespoons of crumbled blue cheese and a tablespoon of toasted walnuts. (That amount serves 2 to 3.) The flavors are wonderfully complementary.
