Ingredients

  • 3-4 medium beets red, golden, or striped
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary optional

Instructions

  • Trim off the thin, stringy part of the root. Also, trim the greens, leaving about 1 inch of the stems attached to prevent them from bleeding too much juice while roasting.
  • Wash and scrub the beets to remove any dirt. Next, pat them dry with a paper towel.
  • Place the beets on a large piece of aluminum foil. Drizzle the olive oil over the beets and rub to evenly coat them. Then, season them with salt, pepper, and optional herbs to taste.
  • Add another piece of aluminum foil over the beets and wrap them in the foil packet.
  • Place the foil-wrapped beets on a baking sheet and bake them at 400°F for 50-60 minutes, depending on the size. They are done when easily pierced with a fork.
  • Once done, let the beets cool slightly. Then, rub off the skins using your hands or a paper towel.
  • Leave the beets whole or chop them into small pieces. After that, serve or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator to enjoy later.

Notes

  • Storage: Store leftover roasted beets in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-5 days.
  • Leave Whole or Chop: Once roasted, serve these beets whole or chopped. Cut them into bite-sized pieces on a cutting board to use in other recipes.
