I recently went in and did another Cooking Session with JoJo's Day Programme
This time the recipe was Beetroot and Goat's Cheese Risotto
from a now defunct Australian Good Food magazine
How I miss this magazine!!!
The pink rice caused quite a stir amongst the group LOL!!!
Top with Parsley when done and it really is a delicious meal but then again I love beetroot!!!
Some of the gang helped decorate it!!!

Oh YummmmMMM... will definitely use this recipe! Thanks :)
This really looks delicious!
who could fail to be cheered by a plate of pink deliciousness!
OH HOW DELICIOUS THIS LOOKS! I have to give beetroot a try; I wonder if it's the same as BEETS? I am not fond of pickled beets, so the word "BEET" make me suspicious!!! But combined with rice? Well that warrants further investigation of the tasting kind!!!
Hello there sweet Dzintra! Do you have a cough? OH dear, your weather change is probably bringing it on; you with a new spring, us with fall just around the corner. CHEERS to you and in French we say, A VOTRE SANTÉ (To your health!)
Much love, Anita
That looks so pretty Dzintra and tasty.
