So, there were good looking beets at the grocery last week: a rare event that led to me snatching them up.  Over the weekend i had pulled a recipe for roasting them (covered in a Dutch oven, with a bit of water, 400°F for 30-40 min) which noted loving to prep them this way for sandwiches.

Sandwiches?

So i have now had three beet sandwiches - -huzzah for getting a mandoline-- and the last one was divine as i have now made a highly seasoned cream cheese spread with ginger, horseradish, tangerine zest, tangerine juice, pepper, and my dried (fermented) onion powder. And cucumber, but oh the beets and that spread.

Lots of different style beet sandwiches out there, including Reuben inspired seasoned beets, but this seasoned cream cheese was so satisfying with the beets.

That's pretty similar to to the roasting recipe i dug up, but with seasonings. The beets and potatoes together sounds like a nice pairing.
