To The Beet

So as you all know, I throw an Oscar party every year. And though I had planned on a big bash yet again this year, it seemed almost everyone was out of town! I still had a get-together, but since my guest list was pretty small, I opted to make dinner instead of the usual all-out soiree. I found this amazing beet risotto recipe and knew instantly it would be perfect for the occasion: the intense red color is so reminiscent of the red carpet! And the fresh lemon zest adds the perfect golden accent, just like the coveted golden statues of the evening! Even though the awards are over, I still urge you to try this recipe. It is truly outstanding and worth a celebration of its own! oxox, Chelle
