Question about fresh beetroot

[Kazbah]

I was going to suggest roasting it first too - don't forget to wear gloves so you don't have pink hands!

Thanks Kazbah.

So wrap it in foil and bung it in the oven? Should I put olive oil or something over it first? I haven't baked one before. Trying to find tips, but Google is not my friend today

[Miss.September]

ooh, found one! Thanks girls

ETA - Lenny you can share this one. It's enormous

PacRakMG- are you kidding? This is exactly what we're having for dinner tonight!!!!

Yup, what the others have said- roast it first, and then cook like a pumpkin risotto

YUM!

[Miss.September]

LOL, that's awesome, Krystals! Too funny. What else are you putting in your one....yep fishing for ideas here

[krystals]

zucchini and parmesan... we have too many zucchinis and I just like parmesan LOL. I'll grate the zucchini- it won't do much flavour wise, the beets and cheese will take care of that, but it will bulk the veggie value

[Miss.September]

Cool, yum!

I've got some chicken and some mushrooms that I want to use. See what I can do with it

Enjoy!

Beetroot with spinach and Meredith goat's cheese is sensational!
