I made this a few days ago and it was heavenly. I served it as the main dish with sauted chard from my garden. Wow! The earthy flavors mixed with the goat cheese was so yummy. I had it for lunch the next day with (more goat cheese) and arugula mixed in. This will definitely become a frequent addition, especially when the beets in my garden are ready.

made this last night and just had it again for lunch and it is seriously delicious. Used a combo of beef stock and leftover wine from the fridge and added it in batches (the more traditional risotto style), served it with garlic beef ribs and salad, it was so delicious, this might be my go-to recipe for using up an adundance of beets! Thank you!

This looks amazing! I made risotto the first time about two months ago it is a fun but tedious process constant stirring but well worth it. And to top it off with goat cheese makes it even better!

My 6 yr old (who will be turning 13 this month) also asked for beets. A LOT. He particularly liked them pickled but would eat them any way I served them until one late summer day when he was 10, two of his friends were eating with us – Roasted Roots (what had been a favorite veg meal of ours until that day). One of his friends asked *while munching happily on it* “why is this potato all red?”. Once I explained that it was not a potato, both friends declared that they didn’t like beets and it really “didn’t taste right”. My son quit eating beets after that. I actually didn’t plant any this year. I think you have delivered the recipe that will have him enjoying them again. Thank you. Going out for some late gardening now.

Additonally, beets are VERY good for your gallbladder.

I’m glad to see that commentor #50, Laura, also thought that this said BEEF risotto. And the picture is a bit mis-leading as it is. It took me well over a week to slow down and correctly read the title of this recipe. Hah!

If you do not like beets it isprobably because you have never eaten fresh ones….so totally different from canned ones…try it some time.

Myself, like others thought that the title said BEEF and the bright red was just way too much…. but after coming across it was a few days I figured that I would give it a better look, and then realized it said beet!!! whew! talk about relieved!! haha I like beets. don’t love them, but then I like sweet potatoes.. just did not eat enough when I was a child to say yeah or nay. So I will try this recipe, it looks easy and fun to make.
