Beet-Carrot Bread

I saw this recipe all over the internet in 2009.  I haven't made it yet, so let me know what you think.

• Separate 3 eggs, beat yolks

          Add 1 cup butter

          Add 1 1/2 cups sugar, beat all together

• Then beat in:

          1 cup shredded beets

          1 cup shredded carrots

          2 tsp baking powder

          1 tsp salt

          1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional) either walnuts or pecans

          2 1/2 cups unsifted flour

          1 tsp grated orange rind (don't skip the orange rind, it really makes this bread "happen")

          whip egg whites until fluffy and add last

• Put into 2 greased and floured regular size loaf pans.

          Sprinkle batter lightly with a small amount of sugar.

          Bake at 375 F for 45 mintues.
