Beets are full of good stuff. They contain a unique source of phytonutrients called betalains, which are antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and detoxifying. They are also chock full of vitamins and minerals, especially folic acid, manganese, and potassium. So, I guess you could say these gluten-free beet brownies are ” tasty ” and “healthy,” too!

A friend mentioned your site, very interesting. I’m a few month away from paying off my property, so my plans for a dome are for 2022. Rather pay cash. Meanwhile I am signing up for your newsletter. Impressed by what I saw. My daughter and her husband have an actual dome house.
Thanks Carmen! We appreciate the kind words, and good luck with your new home!
