Roasted Beets with Gorgonzola cheese

Beets are definitely not a favorite vegetable of mine. They most often taste like chemicals and I believe their thin layer of skin absorb the smells as well. The best way to get rid of the taste and smell is to use a strong, flavorful ingredient like garlic while roasting in an oven or cooking them over stove.

Test this easy recipe, a flavorful dish of beets with Gorgonzola cheese. Here's a list of some of the nutritional benefits of beets.

  1. A natural aphrodisiac used by the Romans.
  2. High in Potassium, magnesium, fibre, phosphorus, iron, vitamins A, B & C; beta-carotene, beta-cyanine and folic acid.
  3. Removes toxins from the body.
  4. Good for mind health.
  5. Lowers blood pressure.

Tomato rice, flavorful, fluffy and mildly-spiced

This is a vegan dish in which spice and other ingredients may be altered very easily to suit your taste. The proportions I have in my recipe are for a mild to medium-hot palette. If you want just a hint of flavor, cut back the chillie to 1 or completely omit them.

Here's the recipe from swamyskitchen.com.
