That's good to hear Bonsai. I'd made a list of beetroot recipes from a lot of my books and now I can't put my hands on it.

Does it have to be an original recipe or can it be an existing recipe (I missed the 'rules' with the earlier challenges)?

It can be any recipe Marina, it's always nice to have new recipes with photos but I'm not getting too strict with this challenge.  Bumping an existing recipe is always useful.

I've been asked if there is a time frame with this challenge.  Let's just play it by ear, if people are still cooking with either or both ingredients I can't see why it can't go on for 1-2 weeks.  If you post your intention to join in, we will know when to move on.

I'm not sure how this challenge works but I'm enjoying the beetroot, pear and feta salad I made from QFITT. I am trying to make more of an effort to include beetroot in my meals this year. I need to use more mushrooms too especially since they are great for the immune system.

My favourite beetroot recipe is from In The Mix by Danni Valent, it is her Beetroot, Pomegranate and Pistachio salad – even DH who is wary of “unusual” salads likes this one!

I have quite a few favourite beet root dishes. Tenina's Beetroot salad, Dani V's Beetroot salad, the EDC Beetroot salad. I also make a mean vegie soup that I put Beetroot into. I like Beetroot and Chocolate Cake. However I have decided I am going to try something new. I love Beetroot Dips too. I did see a frittata that may be nice.
Great ingredient/s Judy.
