ChefM, yes, I love roasted beets, and have done them before. Also did a salad with some goat's cheese, here. I just didn't feel like turning on the oven just to roast a few beets in this case, but definitely, the flavor is better when roasted. As for stalker mode, 96-98% of readers choose to take that route, but look how much richer the posts are when folks add intelligent or amusing or insightful comments! :)

MM,

Roast the beets with olive oil and salt and pepper and the taste is wonderful! if you ever have a chance on making baby beets and goat cheese salad you will be surprise of the contrast of flavor of roasted beets, goat cheese, orange,candied pecans and some mache. I am saying this because I am looking at your bounty and I can taste all the freshness of your vegetables ! baby vegetables are the number one on my list when it comes to making dinner @ home for a company or with friends …. and of course we use this kind @ the restaurant too ! been a follower since my culinary student days few yrs back , lol .. and I promised myself not to leave a comment but just be a stalker but I cannot stop myself from posting a comment about the beets and baby vegetables…

Ha, ha, ha, had to chuckle at your words – try having the waiter to describe all that! but just delicious and lovely presentation.

kim e, the beets were just blanched. But they could have been baked briefly as an alternative… and would have been even sweeter and more flavorful…
