And a very interesting combo. But I have to say I'm not 100% convinced about the beetroot... I still don't really like it (something about the texture is just wrong!) unless it is slow-roasted with EVOO and rosemary. But I suspect there are more beetroot lovers than haters out there ;-)<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('1999','Jeanne'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('1999','Jeanne','Wow - hot stilton sauce!!

Katie: Well, both are delicious. Why not try both? Kalyn: It is a delicious combination - but I'm just a beetroot addict. astrid: Give it a go - you just might like it! farmgirl: you'll just have to wait a while for them to grow, is all ;) SimCooks: A tower of goats cheese and beetroot with balsamic vinegar drizzled around is equally delicious. Mimi: Thankyou very much. But where's the bread? PatL: I'm off to Google to look up golden beets - to see if they're really a different colour, or if I'm just daft.

(can you tell serendipity is my word for the week?), because I just was thinking how little I liked beets until very recently, and now that I've found golden beets I'm falling in love with them.
