I didn't use a recipe, but you could probably use a spinach quiche recipe substituting the beet tops. I used those miniature phyllo shells instead of a large quiche since it was just a symbolic food and Yom Tov meals are already pretty big. I wilted chopped beet tops (and a little onion for flavor) in the microwave. Be sure to squeeze out the wilted tops because if the beets are red, there is red pigment in the leaf veins. I didn't use the large central vein of the leaves for that reason and I was afraid it might be a little tough. You don't want the liquid and the pigment mixed with the eggs isn't all that attractive. If you go the baby quiche route, they bake very quickly. Overcooked eggs are rubbery!
