Oven Roasted Beets Recipe

Ingredients

• 2 red beets
• 2 golden beets
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

1. 1

   Prep: Preheat the oven to 375. Scrub the beets well, then pat dry with a paper towel. Place on a cutting board and remove the greens (if attached) and the bottoms.

2. 2

   Roast: Toss the beets with the olive oil and place in a baking dish cut side down. Wrap the dish tightly with foil and roast the beets for 45 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the size, or until tender.

3. 3

   Peel: When the beets are cool enough to handle, remove from the baking dish and rub each beet with a paper towel to remove the skin. Use plastic gloves for the red beets if desired to keep your hands from turning red.

4. 4

   Cut in half from top to bottom, and slice into ¼" wedges, then season with salt, pepper and any desired herbs or flavorings. Enjoy!
