While it may not be the most glamorous vegetable, the humble beet is delicious when added to a traditional risotto.  The earthy, savory-sweet beet flavor pairs nicely with the creamy rice, and the gorgeous deep pink color makes the dish fancy enough to serve to company.
* Don't be turned off by the long cooking time.  Most of the time is inactive while you wait for the beets to roast in the oven.
