Ingredients
6-10
beets
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
While the oven is preheating, gently scrub the beets clean and pat the dry.(do not trim the ends)
Line a baking dish with foil or parchment paper.
Place the beets in a single layer the lined baking dish.
Cover the baking dish tightly with foil.
Roast for 45 minutes to 2 hours (larger beets may take longer).
Flip the beets every 30 minutes to roast evenly.
After cooking, uncover the beets and allow to cool for 5-10 minutes.
Then cut off the beet stems and tails.
Peel the skin from the beets while they are still warm. (I use latex gloves to keep from staining my fingers) :-)
Store in an air tight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
ENJOY!!
