I love creative ideas. Especially when it comes to food, so I tried something again and created this beet cordon bleu. Just give it a try. It is a new taste experience, which you can still change individually.

Beet Cordon Bleu

It’s different, it’s special, and it’s versatile. Try it with one of my potato products and lots of veggies from one of my lunches. If you don’t like mustard, you can just leave it out. Everyone likes it differently. This recipe is the basis for a novel treat. Beet Cordon Bleu for people who like to try new things.
