Roasted Beets

Roasted Beets

Beets are a rich source of fiber, potassium, iron, magnesium and vitamin C. So, kick off the winter with a foot forward to a healthier lifestyle. This recipe is vegan, vegetarian, egg and gluten free.

Ingredients:

  • 2 medium beets
  • 2 medium golden beets
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • salt
  • pepper
  • orange olive oil

Steps/Methods:

Rinse beets then cover them with water in a 3 quart saucepot and bring to a boil. Lower heat to a simmer and cook beets until you can put a knife through them and they slide off. Remove beets from heat, and put the saucepot in your sink and turn on the cold water in the pot. As the water is running, grab the beets and peel off the outer skin. The skin should slide off easily. Once skins have been removed, quarter beets into a bowl and toss with olive oil, salt and pepper. Lay beets in one layer on a sheet pan and roast in 400F oven for 10-15 minutes. Then pull the beets out and put them on your plate, drizzle with orange oil and serve.
